#DINO CUBE FLIP EDGE PIECE HOW TO#
We've reached a point where we have to perform another set of "first layer corners" and "second layers", but we already know how to do these. Use the same method that you used for solving the white corners. When the edges are in place go ahead and solve the corners. Use the left or right algorightms below to insert the marked pieces from the top layer: This is the first step where you might need a little help, even if you know the 3x3 solution.

When they're are all done, locate the corners above each completed edge and turn them where they belong to. Turn the cube with the solved face down and use the same F2L algorithms that you already know from the 3x3 to solve the next set of edges. This step is really intuitive and it shouldn't be a problem, try to do it without checking the links. When the edges are done insert the white corner pieces, just like you would for a Rubik's Cube. In this case we're not building a white cross, but a white star on the top. The start is similar to solving the white cross on a Rubik's Cube. Fill the gaps between the white and side centers with the matching colors. Note that in this case F2 = F'3 and F'2 ≠ F2. Each letter means a clockwise rotation of the face, while apostrophes mark the anticlockwise turns. Let's use the same FRU notation that you are probably familiar with. There are a few steps where you might get stuck but the algorithms below will help you go through the difficulties. To solve the Megaminx first you need to know how to solve the Rubik's Cube because the methods of the two puzzles are very similar. The bigger dodecahedrons are called Gigaminx, Teraminx, Petaminx, Zettaminx, all the way up to the record-breaking Yottaminx (image below).

On the image above a white and a black-body Megaminx is accompanied by their smaller brother, the 2x2 Kilominx (Flowerminx), a dodecahedron-shaped Rubik's Cube shape mod and a 3x3 cube. The World Record is held by the Korean Yu Da-Hyun with a 33.17s result. The Megaminx is an official WCA competition event.

There are many variations but the most common version has 12 different colors, having 11 pieces in a star-pattern arrangement on each face with five corner pieces, five edge pieces and a fixed center piece. The solution is almost the same, just a few new algorithms come in when you reach the last layer, so if you’re familiar with the classic 3x3x3 Cube then you won't have problems solving the Megaminx either.

It is a dodecahedron-shaped face-turning twisty puzzle which is very similar to the classic Rubik’s Cube. The Megaminx, previously called as Hungarian Supernova was patented by Uwe Mèffert. Home » Puzzles » The Megaminx - How To Solve It With The Beginner's Method The Megaminx
