fastest 2x2 solve | how to solve cube | cube algorithms 2x2

hey guys today I'll teach you how to solve one of these 2x2 rubik's cube now you don't have to know how to solve a 3x3 but it does help the first thing you need to know is a set of algorithm an algorithm puts pieces where you want them to be without messing up the rest of the cube so let's say I move this one the right layer down bottom layer to the left right up and then down layer to the right and then if I repeat this six times this cube will solved itself f rom a solved Rubik's Cube and like that let's go ahead and mix this up the first step is to solve this white side along with this first layer I'm going to pick a white piece let's say.

this one and this will be my top layer at all times so just look at this mgc logo and this will be my top layer so I'll always rotate it like this now this is white blue and orange so I want to find a piece that has blue or orange along with white so here's an orange here this piece white red blue this piece has to go right here because the blue will match this blue color. 

so I can move the bottom layer so it's directly under where it has to go and I just simply move this up so we have two white pieces and we have this connecting blue lateranother piece. 

we can solve is this one this has white red green.

so I want to put it right here because this piece has to go here because that's this red red white red green so this corner has to go here I'm going to put this in my front layer bottom right corner and then. 

I'm going to do the algorithm I did in the beginning of this video it was put the right down bottom to the left right up bottom to the right I'm going to do that until.

this white is in the proper position so that this is not the right piece so we simply just keep going it's still right here right down and there we go we got one more right here so I'm gonna move the bottom layer. 

so it goes directly under it put this in the front face bottom right corner and then do this algorithm again R prime D prime R D so right down right up and then keep going until this white is on top and there we go here is the first side white and also, 

we have the first layer done next we're going to flip this cube so this white side is on the bottom layer like that we're gonna find a corner that's in the correct position like this one this is in the correct position this has yellow red blue so red blues right here yellows on top. 

this is not because this is yellow green orange while this is green red this is not in the right position and this is not in the right position. 

so we have one corner correct when you have one corner in the right position and these three are not you want to put this in the front layer top top right corner and then do this top to the left right side up top layer back left side up top to the left right side down top to the right left side down so this is in the right position and this is in the right position while these two corners are not in this case this is a bad case 

if we do a u-turn here's one in the correct position and everything else is not so this is a good case if you cannot find one or all four in the correct position you might have two that are directly diagonal together in this case you can do this algorithm from anywhere. 

White is still solved put any unsolved corner front layer top right corner and repeat this algorithm until this yellow is on top so right down down to the left right up down to the right and then just keep doing that okay yellow is solved now don't rotate the cube turn the top layer so that the next piece is in the slot and do thata gain okay this is solved. 

so we have to now turn the top layer so that the next piece is in this slot and do that again okay this is stalled top layer again this is in this slot and we got one more time and then we turn it this and then that's it Congrats on solving your first 2x2 cube if you if you have any questions please leave them down in the comments below. 

I also linked the 3x3 tutorials so if you ever want to solve one of these guys it will be in the description below and thanks for watching make sure you like and subscribe I'll see you guys later
