No, I use intuitive but I know algs for some cases.

Also, the alg you posted doesn't solve it.
It makes the pair, then insert it the way that preserves EO. I think that algorithmic f2l is awful because 1 you dont know what the alg does to the rest of the cube most of the time unless you memorize it and 2 you aren't able to do case influencing. I have not learned a single f2l alg in my life and don't plan to.

I figure I can just an F move for this case. Or another solution.

But wow, that's pretty cool that you don't learn algs. Some are just too fast to pass up.

Honestly, I don't think that algs are the best way to do F2L. The thing about intuitive F2L is you can do whatever you want to complete it. You can do some really cool stuff by pairing one f2l pair while inserting another. I also don't agree with your statement that some algs are too fast to pass up. Most of my f2l pairs are very close to sub-1 and I don't think an alg is that much faster and it won't be worth sacrificing lookahead and case influencing. I also think it's interesting that Patrick ponce said that he also never uses f2l algs.
 
Alg for this front left case (green-orange pair)?

Been getting it a lot, feels like there should be a rotationless way or at most one rotation.


y' R U' R' U2 R U' R'

Generally, the best thing is intuitive. But for hard cases, learning an alg is smarter and faster

I use U' L F' L' F U2 L' U L

It uses F moves, but doing F moves as a part of a sledgehammer isn't too bad.

Also, another plus of doing it this way is that it doesn't mess up the FR pair if it is already inserted.

That one's also good. Mine doesn't mess up any pairs though
 
Can somebody help me in memorising full F2L. Today I was listing out my my backdrops that I guess, are the reasons I am Sub-50. This is one of them.
All suggestions, critiques and tips will be fairly appreciated!:D:D And if someone can help me properly schedule my F2L cases according to their difficulty and which one to learns first/later, then I guess I can't ask for anything more!:D:D
