A Skewb with its own personality

The MoYu MFJS MeiLong Maple Leaf Skewb is a variation of the classic Skewb that introduces a shape different from the traditional cube. It belongs to MoFang JiaoShi (MFJS)'s MeiLong series, MoYu's line of accessible puzzles designed for both beginners and collectors who enjoy adding pieces beyond the NxN format.

How a Skewb works

The Skewb is a puzzle that turns on the diagonals of the cube, not on its faces like the classic 3x3. This particularity makes the cuts generate triangular and square pieces that rotate in an alternating fashion, offering an experience distinct from the standard cube. In this version, the outer surface adopts a design inspired by the maple leaf, adding a visual component to the mathematical challenge.

Who it is designed for

This Skewb fits three profiles well. First, those who already solve the 3x3 and want to explore other puzzle families without too big a jump in difficulty. Second, shape mod collectors looking for pieces with their own identity. And third, anyone wanting to give something different to a cube fan, since the shape catches the eye immediately.

What to expect from the MeiLong series

MoYu's MeiLong line is known for offering a reasonable cost-to-performance ratio. Turns are usually smooth for its price range and the mechanism handles frequent use well. It is not a top-tier competition puzzle, but it delivers what one expects from an enthusiast Skewb.

Usage notes

Like any mechanical twisty puzzle, avoid forcing moves when a piece is misaligned. A turn with misaligned layers can break internal pins. With normal use, this Skewb behaves predictably for a long time.
