How would you solve this case BLD?

[Zane_C]

Thanks riffz, reThinking the Cube and Lemon for the suggested algs.

UF>BU>DB is [CQW]: [F:URU',M] is faster

I'm going to choose this, it's the fastest and most intuitive approach for me.

[reThinking the Cube]

BH:
x' y [L2, U' M U] y' x
z [U' R' U, M] z'
x y' [U L2 U', M] y x'
x [R2, U M2 U'] x'
x' r R U R' U' r' U2 R U R U' R2 U2 (x)

x' y [L2, U' M U] y' x

that is elegant! your buffer is different than mine [C v. A] nice.

@3-stylers (chrishardw,aronpm,riffz)

Noted: fearless cube rotations to get better algs, with no sign of the seasickness that would be expected from trying to keep track of a blindfold buffer that is hoping around like a flea on a hot skillet. So it baffles me more than a blown transmission on a 1970 Maytag, that you avoided the rather obvious shortcut (R2 E2 R2 E2), and wasted a lot of time by 3-cycle shooting this permutation.

Is there something about your method that makes it hard to take advantage of easy 2x2-cycles?

As someone who is actually fast at BLD, and has gotten cases like this in solves, I would say that the extra time to think about the different solution makes the solve slower. It's the same reason why I would not do an R2 premove to solve a 1x2x2 block in a BLD solve: it complicates memo and execution and just slows down the automatic solving process. However, that's not to say that just simply z'U2M2U2M2z, or a H/Z perm would not be something I would do. Doing that and then doing edge flips is a hassle.

Got a bit late...sorry!

x' F E' R U R' E R U' R' F' x

U M' U M' U2 M U M U'
L' U' L E L' U L E'
E R U R' E' R U' R'
R2 F M2 F' R2 F M2 F'
Rw' U' R U Rw U2 R' U' R' U R2 U2 R'
thats exactly how I would solve it today

[Damien Porter]

This is what I would do


R2 E2 R2 E2

U S U' B2 U S' U' B2

U' M' B2 M B2 M' B M B2 M' B2 M B' U

[Ranzha V. Emodrach]

POOP:
EO
[L': ((M' U)3 (M' U'))2]
[x2 R': r U R' U' r' U2 R U R U' R2' U2' R]
EP
[z': [M2, U2]]
[M, U2]

[ben1996123]

Using OP because bldnub:

Jb [l:Jb] [l2:Jb] [l':Ja] [L':T] [dL':T] [d'L:T] [d'L':T] [d2L':T] [d2L:T]

[Ranzha V. Emodrach]

I just realised I didn't OP the POOP.
It was moar optimal permutation.
Oops.
