really bad j-perm :(
 
A bit of a weird one in execution for me:

(2, 3) / (-1, -2) / (1, -3) / (3, 3) / (-5) / (0) / (1) / (2) / (3) / (2) / dddd

ddUd (-1,0)
dUdd (1,0)
Uddd (-2,0)
UUdd (-1,0)
UUUd (-3,0)
y2 (3,0)
dUdd (-2,0)
UUdd (-1,0)
UUUd (1,0)
UUdU (-2,0)
UdUU (-2,0)
dUUU (1,0)
UUUU (5,0)

Every move except the last one is 3 or less
Only 3 are not 1 or 2...

Easy scramble:

(0, 4) / (-2, -5) / (-2, 2) / (0, -1) / (3) / (6) / (3) / (-1) / (-3) / (6) / UddU

x2 z
ddUd (-1,0)
dUdd (4,0)
Uddd (3,0)
UUUd
x2 (2,0)
UUUd (2,0)
UUdU (-1,0)
UdUU (6,0)
dUUU (2,0)
UUUU (-3,0)

Timed at 4.9x with a small choke on the 6 move... It's just a shame the last move I did in the solve was (-2,0)... :(
 
IF says that no insertions can be found :/
Oh yeah, IF exists! I completely forgot.
It worked for me and gave me two 29 move solutions:
2 corner 3-cycle(s) insertion(s) needed

B F2 D' B' D2 B D' F2 R D' R' D B2 [@1] D B D2 B2 D B'
Insert at @1: B D F D' B' D F' D'
After the 1st insertion: B F2 D' B' D2 B D' F2 R D' R' D B' D F D' B' D F' B D2 B2 D B' [@2]
Insert at @2: B D B' U' B D' B' U
Fewest moves: 29. 6 moves cancelled
The final solution: B F2 D' B' D2 B D' F2 R D' R' D B' D F D' B' D F' B D2 B2 D2 B' U' B D' B' U

x2 // Inspection
R' L' F' U L' B [D2 // Cross (7/7)

U' R' U R2 U' R' // F2L-2+3 (6/16)

No inspection and almost no warmup, so only 11.54

Lots of solved pieces, probably good for BLD. Lots of blocks too, so it was good for Roux as well.

4 move cross on white and ridiculously easy F2L.

I am sub 25 and got a 14.63 on this one, which is .10 seconds from my PB. Just retried the scramble for fun and got a 14.23! Try it yourself!

You should use a random state scrambler, such as qqTimer or Prisma Puzzle Timer. Random state scrambles are better.

(nice scramble though, here's my solution:
x2 // Inspection
L' D L F' // Cross (4/4)
U2 L U' L' // F2L-1 (4/8)
y R U' R' // F2L-2 (3/11)
U L' U L U2 L' U' L // F2L-3 (8/19)
U2 L F' L F' L' U L' // F2L-4 (8/27)
f R U R' U' f' // EOCPLL (6/33)
U2 R U2 R' U' R U R' U' R U' R' U // 2GLL (13/46)
)
