How to Solve the 2x2x2 Rubik's Cube!

Master the 2x2x2 Rubik’s Cube in 15 minutes!

00:28 - First Corner
01:13 - Second Corner
04:37 - Third Corner
06:38 - Fourth Corner
07:26 - First Layer Check-up
08:25 - Last Layer Positioning
12:31 - Last Layer Orienting
15:03 - Last Layer (for CFOP users)

Although it is not necessary, I highly recommend already knowing how to solve the 3x3x3 Rubik’s Cube. You can learn it easily using these links:

Second layer: youtu.be/zNEOm7EE4n4
Third layer: youtu.be/iohUekiQRJk

If you already know 2-look OLL and PLL, learning the 2x2x2 will be a breeze!

•This video IS NOT:
-An explanation of the fastest or most efficient solution for the 2x2x2
-An explanation of a method that is necessarily faster than your method
-An explanation of the inner workings of the 2x2x2
-For people who don’t want to learn the 2x2x2

•This video IS:
-A quick and easy tutorial for solving 2x2x2 using LBL (and how to apply CFOP)
-For people wanting to learn how to solve the 2x2x2

1. Watch the entire video before commenting. I go case-by-case, so be patient if your case isn’t the first one that I explain.

2. “Orient,” “flip,” and “rotate” mean the same thing. “Position,” “place,” and “spot” mean the same thing.

3. If a piece is already solved, don’t ask, “What if this piece is already solved?” Just go on to the next step!

4. If you mess up, you need to evaluate how bad you messed up and see how far back it took you. Most likely you will have to restart completely (which really isn’t that bad lol).
