Rubik's cube methods?

Question

can anybody list any besides layer by layer and fridrich

Answer 1

I'll list as many as I can.

Petrus Method: Requires much intuition, sort of difficult to learn but easy if learned! Not many algs to remember, great for fewest moves challenge =]

Roux Method: The 2nd best speedsolving method I've ever seen. Almost similar to Petrus, but is much quicker due to fluent and unwasted moves. Less algs than Fridrich, more than Petrus.

Heise Method: This method is GREAT for fewest moves, but requires A LOT of intuition, and learning concepts such as commutators and conjugation. Learn this only if you don't want to memorize algs, because frankly there ARE none for this method!

Ortega Method: Corners first, edges second. I'm not sure how feasible this is, but works extremely well for 2x2 cube.

Waterman Method: I have not yet explored this method. But when I read it, I didn't like it... it's kinda complicated to me. Though, you can check it out at the link below if you want.

VH Method: Named after Lars Vandenbergh (SP?) and Dan Harris, who've made various changes to the Fridrich Method. Not savvy on the details as Dan's tutorial is not fully posted.

ZB Method: Named after... Zbignew Zborowski (I GOT HIS NAME RIGHT XD) and Ron Van Bruchem, who've made MANY changes to Fridrich Method. The alg count here is IMMENSE, so only veteran cubers will want to learn this.

I'm certain there are more methods. But. This is all I can remember, as it is 4 AM in the morning =]
