A cube noob asks:

The f2l cases called "weird" on the wiki (cases 23 and 24)

If I have this with the pieces back left and middle left on the upper face and I want to insert it in the back left slot without rotating, what is the best algorithm?

Or is it better to rotate?

Cheers

Thanks Rnewms, that's the one I use when I'm slotting it in the front right but I never thought of that!

If I rotate, to leave the two pieces on the front face to slot them in the front left, I currently use:

L'U'L U2 L'U'L U L'U'L

This always seems like the f2l bit that takes up most of my time (I have low tps). Which of the many alternatives would anyone recommend?

does anyone, by any chance, have the subset of 1LLL
where there are two edges swapped and two corners swapped and one corner twisted?

examples: L' U L U2 R' L' U L U R U R' U R
B' F R F' R' B R U2 R' B' R B U2

similar to 22LL, just with a twisted corner
should be around 100 algs, or more

OLS with EO already done is the second last step of ZZ-c. There are 501 cases according to this video. But since any case can be set up to a summer or winter variation case quite easily, WV and SV would be a sensible place to start learning.

Thank you for the algorithms.

I'm not planning to learn all of them since I use a lot of ZBLL, only some of the longer F2L pairs.
