 What is Varasano? 

Varasano is a intermediate 2x2 method where you make a face, orient the top layer, and then permute both the top and bottom layer with 1 algorithm

How fast can I get with Varasano? 

You can quite easily get to a 4-5 second average with Varasano.

Varasano used to be called Ortega! Why did it get changed?!

Here is a video explaining it:



Struggling to get past 5-6 seconds with Varasano? I bet I have the answer.

This video is about how to fix a mistake that most beginner to intermediate Ortega solves make without even thinking about it. Enjoy! My channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/cyotheking Don't forget to subscribe to Cubing World for 4 cubing videos a week!

This is a video of how I execute all of my PBL algorithms.
