Just make sure you are flashing the correct SuperSU version to your tablet so it doesn't happen again. It may be easier to simply flash a pre-rooted ROM.

No, you use adb to get custom recovery, once you have custom recovery you flash all zips through recovery.
I used that on my HTC Thunderbolt lol

No. That's not an issue. All that means is TWRP doesn't check for root and ask if you want to install SuperSU (like I asked you last time if that's how you installed it).
Just flash the correct SuperSU.zip for your device through TWRP.
Stop making new threads. Just stick to one thread.

Please tell me you didn't just install SuperSU from the Play Store and thought it would do the same thing.
Tell us step by step what you did to try and get root.

Great, im soft bricked again. so, i downloaded supersu from chainfire on my pc, i copyed it to my nexus. i booted into twrp and installed it. i downloaded flash fire after it said root binaries not installed and it said supersu needed to be updated. so i got a later version from chainfire and installed via TWRP and now im soft bricked again.

You're doing something wrong. So just use the toolkit to unlock and root your Nexus.

Does it matter?And you plan on doing what with Root access?
I feel you're going to root just so you can say you're rooted.
