but i see many people avg around 2 secs using ortega.

I don't know of a single competitor that uses ortega only and has an official sub3 average. I know that Chris Olson can sub3 an average of 12 with ortega, but that hardly counts. He will only use Ortega in an official solve where building a face/layer gives him OLL skip right into PBL. Otherwise he ignores it.

At any rate, learn Ortega because I said so :)

I have a 2.65 ao12 with Ortega, although I pick the OLL alg based on what will give the best PBL case.

Ortega is a great starter method for sure. It got me almost sub 3, but you need CLL for that next step.
