Hello , everyone .
I'm Cuba guys .
Many of you asked me in the comments to return the old format as an experiment .
I'm doing this video , hope you enjoy it .
It will be very simple but so familiar to you , especially for those who subscribed to the channel a long time ago .
And this video , I want to show you a Rubik's cube .
But as you know , a regular Rubik's cube doesn't surprise anyone anymore .
Let me introduce twisted Rubik's cube three by three .
This puzzle is collectable and unique and of course , it's way harder to solve than a regular Rubik's cube three by three .
And of course , in this video , I will try to solve it .
But first , let's take a look at this cube from above and below .
Uh This cube looks like a normal three by three until we start to turn it .
As soon as we start to turn it , its shape is changing .
In fact , a lot of people look at this Rubik's cube and think it's actually photoshopped and it shouldn't exist .
But as you can see it's in my hands , an exclusive model , write in the comments if you also have this kind of a cube in your home collection .
And by the way , you can easily gap this cube .
Just follow the link in the description to the cubicle dot com .
It is one of the best and one of the largest online puzzle stores in the world there .
You can find unique puzzles like this collectible one ordinary Rubik's cubes of different sizes and lots of other cool puzzles of different complexity levels .
This will be a perfect gift for you , your friends and the loud ones don't forget to enter promo code Cubas to get a discount , all details by the link in the description .
And now let's try to scramble this cube and look at its shape .
Well , actually when you look at a normal three battery and the twisted three battery , it feels like they just took regular three battery and twisted it like that .
So the edge stayed in its place and the center stayed in its place and the corner too and here only the corners have stayed in their places at the edge here .
And the with the version is already the central part which can be a difficulty for us .
I mean , uh the central element which has to have one color on it , you see , but there are already two colors and the edge element on the other hand has one color .
So our point is not to mix up the edge and the central elements of the middle layer during the solvent So let's scramble it for now and look how it works .
If we do this kind of double turn , then the cube continues to be twisted .
It has uh this right shape .
Even if we do this here , the shape of the cube won't change .
But once we do this , oh I just scrambled the cube and I didn't realize it myself .
The puzzle changed its shape much .
And that , to be honest is starting to scare me .
Look , I didn't plan to scramble this Rubik's cube so quick in this video , but now there's no turning back and all I have to do is to solve it .
By the way , guys do like the format and those of you who haven't seen it .
This is how I used to shoot my videos a few years ago on my first youtube channel , Evgeni Bana Cubed .
It's going to be an experimental format and I'll probably do it from time to time .
But in the meantime , you can press the like button under this video .
If you really like it and write in the comments .
What are your most to vivid memories and impressions about my channel ?
Maybe you like some specific video the most , maybe you like some format or a puzzle .
Maybe you remember some funny memes about me and my channel .
Let us remind that in the comments .
I will be so excited to read it , really excited .
And now let's start the timer .
Here's a really cool thing about place your cube here is written here .
If we put a Rubik's cube in here , the phone sensors close the screen goes off .
And as soon as I pick up the Rubik's cube and start the solvent , the clock will start .
And I don't even have to press the screen to start just to stop .
And that I think is more precisely because both hands have to be on the table before the solvent and then we pick up the cube and the clock will start .
I think at school , let's make a test solvent of a regular cube .
Three by three .
Just compare what time it will take me solving a regular cube and a twisted three by three .
OK ?
I think that's enough .
But the here and let's go 14 seconds .
It's been a long time since I practiced , but still it takes me 15 seconds for a regular three bath three cube .
And what about this monster ?
Let's check it out right now , right in the comments , how much time you think it will take me to solve the twisted Rubik's cube three by three .
And I really hope that a lot of you can guess correctly because you already know me .
Oh yeah , I'll look at it first .
I don't think that's gonna help though .
Put it here and let's start ready , steady , go .
Well , so as you can see , it's quite easy to do the cross , but we have a situation here where these centers are changing places .
Oh , they are easy to put back the first layer .
It's not too hard either .
The second one , it's too early for the second yet .
I'm going to do it using my method for beginners not to lose track of it .
I hope it helps me .
By the way , if you can solve a Rubik's cube , you can learn how to do it on my channel .
I have the most popular training on youtube how to solve a Rubik's cube .
I'm sure you'll be able to do that .
So while I'm still in the second layer and I have uh you know , I mean , one minute , one minute passed .
Yeah .
And here we have a situation that can't possibly be , I'll show you why .
Well , there can be a situation where one edge is inverted and we know that can't be in the regular cube .
But here we have this edge that has one color and it's probably flipped in par with it to change the position of this edge .
We need to change at least one more .
And with it , we're going to use this one color element doesn't matter how we turn it , it's going to match and this one will turn along with it .
OK .
I think it's done .
And now we have to use the PLL algorithm and I think it's a JP .
Well , it's almost sold , but we have uh this situation which is not very pleasant with centers that have two colors .
I need to turn them upside down using two PLL algorithms .
I remind you that this video is sponsored by the cubicle dot com store .
Yes .
Three minutes , 30 seconds .
I don't know how many times this is longer than a regular three by three Rubik's cube .
But still this puzzle turned out to be much more complicated if you have that kind of a Rubik's cube , right in the comments below what time it takes you to solve it ?
Did you solve it at all ?
And to what other unusual puzzles you've ever seen and tried to solve ?
I can tell by myself of that puzzles like this are designed to rack the brain of someone who is trying to solve it , the shape of the cube at the beginning kind of hints that your brain will twist as well while you'll be trying to handle this puzzle .
I've had a lot of fun solving it because I love to solve the Rubik's cubes and while the cube is also so extraordinary and I have the opportunity to show it to you in all its glory .
I'm delighted .
So what we said today is that this sort of collectible puzzles can be complicated too .
It's not so easy to sell them , but on top of everything else , they look wonderful .
And uh yes , this Rubik's cube really looks like it's photoshopped another puzzle .
I've conquered another puzzle in a jar .
Well , friends , thank you so much .
For watching this video .
I remind you this is an experimental format that I haven't done in a while .
A few years , just like that .
Hands a desk and a puzzle .
Nothing more .
I hope you enjoyed this format .
I'm not promising to come back to it , but I promise I will work on the quality of my videos because if you notice uh some of my videos are getting a lot of views like over a million .
But for some reason youtube just won't let you watch my other videos .
Uh which uh for some reason are getting not so many views .
Go to the channel , check what the videos you didn't see in the recommendations I didn't see in the feed .
Maybe youtube is actually broken .
I'm waiting for you on my channel .
We're going to say goodbye for a little while .
Pretty soon .
You will find some cool , more spectacular videos .
Thanks for watching .
This was Cuba .
Bye everyone and have a good time .
