    My intuitive F2L sucks. Sometimes, it takes me up to 35-40to solve the first two layers intuitively. Any tips? I tried watching some vids, but all it showed was the basics, which I already know. I think the only problem I have is getting pieces stuck in the middle layer into the right places in the top layer.

    Everyone has to start somewhere. Just keep practicing. Don't go for speed. Take your time and be efficient with your moves. Try solving cases from different angles. As far as the pieces in the middle layer, I'd learn algs for those if I were you just to make sure that you are solving them as efficiently as possible.

    I'll make sure to learn some algs on some stuck ones. I came up with this exercise that to only find the piece I couldn't find first. I couldn't find edge pieces, so I made sure to find them first, then the corner. I got 38 seconds when my friend counted for me in the car the other day. That might not be accurate though.
