3-Style Tutorial Part 1: The Basics

Learn 3-style! 3-style is currently the fastest blindsolving method.

See pinned comment for another explanation of whether to insert first or interchange first.

There were some topics that I didn't get to explain as thoroughly as I wanted to, but that's what part 2 is for.

Although this tutorial is geared towards BLDers, FMCers can also learn commutators for insertions.

I didn't understand the Interchange first or insertion first thing, how do you know which one is before the other ? Using the target's order?

[JackCaiCubing]

while I know 3-style already, just wanted to say thanks for making this :)

This is "THE BEST" 3 style tutorial, ever!!!

[ParisDorn]

Haven't watched this yet but I will soon. Noah's tutorial was so confusing when I watched it and demotivated me to learn 3-style, but I hope this one is a lot more comprehensive

[cuberkw]

This is the best commutator concept tutorial I've seen so far. Great job!

You don't know how long I've been waiting for this!! Thank you so much! I've been looking for a good 3-style tutorial other than Noah authors

[yishnir]

[cubixrube]

At first I didn't understand commutators that well from other tutorials, after seeing your tutorial understand them much better! :D

[ethanpan]

This tutorial was extremely helpful! After watching Noah's tutorial I learnt how to do 3-Style, but I just didn't know whether to do interchange or insertion first. This video explained that perfectly! Thanks

[logantrinklein]

I just watched your video 4 years after you made it and it was very helpful. I appreciate the practice problems too. Thanks for making it

[LazyEinstein]

I don't use 3-Style yet but I understand commutators and am learning Oroczo as a beginner's method for 3/4BLD because I can and it is a fun difficult challenge.

The visual aids in this tutorial makes it exceptional. You also speak well and are a great teacher. Please continue making these tutorials. This first video is absolutely amazing.

[jambrrrr]

The explanation is so good. I hope i can understand this more while im learning 3 style

[yovliporat]

Wow. This is the first tutorial that actually made me understand comms. Thanks!

Such kind of invaluable straight-to-the-point tutorial, conceptualizing the necessary & important Blindfold-Solving knowledge with clear and concise explanation, definitely facilitates the evolution of the understanding of (blindfold) cubing.
