thx, 3rd video i've watched, i completed f2l twice, once with help from sis, but 2nd time was legit me, only half hour of practice, granted took me about 5 mins to solve on my own, but did it

[jasky]

THANK YOU, I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR SOMEONE WHO CAN EXPLAIN F2L PROPERLY FOR ABOUT 2 DAYS, AND NOW I FINALLY FOUND YOU, THANK YOU!

[seawolf]

Z3 THANK YOU SO MUCH, I CANT BELIEVE THAT I CAN NOW SOLE MY CUNE WITH F2L THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO OF F2L I FOUND YET AND I VERY MUCH RECOMMEND IT THANK YOU!!!

[gamingwarehouse]

I have been trying to learn F2l for months and finally got it with this video!! THANK YOU!!

[stroods]

him: im gonna show you all the cases
me: oh thats great
him: -explains-
me: -has none of the cases- HOW!?!!?!?!?!



Edit: hey so I just remembered this comment and I know f2l since a while now! And I still don't understand this video 😅. It's not Z3's fault tho, everyone has their way of learning and a preferred way to be taught things. Anyways I'll link the video that I ended up learning f2l from. Props to Z3 for making awesome videos tho! (Also thx for all the fricken likes, can't believe it)

The things that helped me the most in this tutorial were the explanations why you did something because I’m starting to just use intuition and realised it’s not really all algorithms (thank god) like the visualisation or hiding pieces and such so thanks

[raquelmard]

I know this is an old video but I had to comment and say thank you! This is the first time I actually understand F2L! You are a fantastic teacher, I love that you explain the logic behind the movements instead of just giving algorithms

[jameslin]

Thank you very much. Actually, I'm planning to teach my classmate F2L next Monday, and you made this video. That helps me a lot. Thanks again.

[vouski]

after so many vids, I have finally come to the right one!

[mecheese]

I thought I couldn't learn F2L after watching many tutorials, but after I watched this tutorial I got it instantly. Thank You

[joncardona]

I have watched so many tutorials on f2l. All of them made it overly complicated and confusing. Within the first 2 minutes of me watching this video, I got it. Thanks!

[bswagdawgcubing]

OMG! TYSM! This is definitely the best f2l tutorial out there. I looked at a million and this is the only one i understood.

[diamondhead]

I have watched and studied all the other F2L tutorials and none of them....I repeat none of them was explained in a more effective manner as your instructions. So glad I found your video. Thanks 🙏🏻

9:26 instead of doing R’ U’ R R’ U’ R to make the pair, I would just do R’ U2 R. Otherwise, this is an amazing tutorial!

i looked through all of youtube and couldn't find a clear video and kept getting lost and frustrated. this video finally was the one that I clicked with. thanks for the great tutorial!

Him : 3 simple steps

Me : sweating to get one pair in right position for 3 minutes just to break the cross
