How to Improve Your Cube Solving Speed

TLDRLearn how to improve your cube solving speed with tips on turns per second, key algorithms, and different solving methods.

Key insights

💡Turns per second (TPS) measures how fast you turn. TPS = Number of turns / Time taken.

🧩Key algorithms like Sune, Anti Sune, and H are important for efficient solving.

🔢Calculating averages in cubing involves removing the best and worst times and taking the mean of the remaining times.

🔀Different solving methods like CFOP, Roux, and ZZ have their own techniques and advantages.

📏Cube solving metrics like QTM, HTM, and ETM determine how moves are counted.
