Hey everyone, I'm back! My finger has mostly healed, not enough to do serious speedsolving but enough to do a few algs in a video 😅

whenever gan releases a new cube, my old ones start acting up

"Just because it works for me, that doesn't mean you should follow any sort of strict process" Thanks so much for including that statement, since a lot of your younger audience seems to associate your opinions and recommendations with facts. Great to see you're being responsible with your fanbase.

I have a cube from the 80's. I kept it for the retro look. One day I decided I needed to learn to solve it and did it using the beginner method. I got sick of it once I was satisfied I could solve it and didn't do it for years. When I picked it up again I couldn't remember how to solve it so I learned it again and purchased new cubes from 2x2 to 5x5 all Rubix brand. Years passed until I returned and was determined to learn parity on the 4x4 and 5x5. This is when I got the need for a new cube or two. I've just got the MoYu WRM WR MagLev 2021 3x3 and the YJ MGC4 4x4 M. I have never experienced anything like them and I'm getting faster and less frustrated practicing. Its the best £60 I've ever spent.

I tried making myself cube agnostic. It was worth the experience trying a range of cubes (though expensive). But, I've definitely ended up ranking them from favorite to least favorite. BTW, thanks J-Perm for providing a reference source for figuring out what my preferred style is. And, this video does a really excellent job of giving an overview on the topic (up voted).

The last time I was this early "just peel the stickers off" was still a viable speedcubing method

Jperm: Try a bunch of cubes and see which one you like the best
my wallet: *DONT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT*

I just ordered my second cube. Literally i’ve been using my Gan 356RS FOR THREE YEARS. And now here comes the upgrade!! Moyu rsm3 v5 ballcore UV! Wish me luck guys of trying a new cube after years.

I hate when people at school just come up to me and grab my cube. But it gets worse, because instead of getting up and bringing me my cube, they slide it to me and scratch the cube all up.

That cube that people reviewed well an 'spoke to me' was the Huanglong. I still love it as my main since it's release :)

I got a Yuxin Little Magic M at a competition in 2019 off of someone for $20 . I lubed it once and it still feels way better than my GAN 356X.

I finnally just got back into cubing and my 1st speed solve was 1:17.168 :) thanks j perm ur the reason i got back into it!!!

As someone who's on a budget. Would there be any advantage to instead doing other events entirely? I can't really afford to buy multiple of the same event cube yet so I'm focusing on building up a collection of different cubes instead. While I might not be able to translate a lot of the skillset between the events, I might still be able to transfer the habits.
