2x2

  1. practice pedicting as much as you can in inspection, that scramble should be very easy to 1-look in under 15 seconds
  2. for that cll, I would recommend different fingertricks
    F R2 U' (left index) R2' U' (left middle) R2 U (right index pinch) R2' F' (left index pinch)
  3. get a better 2x2, it will make your solves will be a lot more consistent
    3x3
  4. become dcn, it only takes a day or 2 to get used to and it will make your cross a lot faster bc youll ahve another option when you get a bad white cross (there was also a free pair on yellow for this scramble)
  5. try to relax your turning during f2l, if you didnt have any lockups it wouldve been a really smooth solve
    4x4
  6. for 1st center, D' Rw2' D' Rw wouldve been better for fingertricks, and you should try to predict a bar for your 2nd center when the 1st one is short like that - also its usually better to hold it so the center is on the bottom when its finished so you dont have to rotate
  7. for the last cross edge, I would put 1 of the pieces into the top layer, then do the slice, then insert the piece and slice back so you dont have to move the paired edge into the top layer before solving it
  8. if one of the last 2 edges in already in the top layer, its better to put the other one next to it and use an l2e alg (see my response to your other critique)
  9. this might just be personal preference but imo its better to regrip to the bottom after the rotation during oll parity

#

"2) try to relax your turning during f2l, if you didnt have any lockups it wouldve been a really smooth solve" is solved i think im sub 13 now

"1) for 1st center, D' Rw2' D' Rw wouldve been better for fingertricks" realized when editing the vid : (
