The famous 3x3 scrambles game

[Megaminx lover]

This thread is for famous solves. Basically the way this works is
1. Post a famous scramble.
2. Solve it the way you normally would. DO NOT solve it the way the person did.
Example:
Scramble (3.47 Yusheng Du scramble) F U2 L2 B2 F' U L2 U R2 D2 L' B L2 B' R2 U2
Solve:
F L D L' U' L y2 F U' R U// Inefficient cross for easy F2L 1
x2 R U' R'//F2L 1
y U R' U2 R U' R' U R//F2L 2
R' F R F' R U' R'//F2L 3
y2 U' R U2 R' U' R U R'//F2L 4
U' R' U' R' F R F' R' F R F' U R//OLL

I've been obsessed with the WR scramble for months and wanted to share some solutions I came up with. I have some more that I'll share in another post.

Edit: I don't know why I said xNSB. It's just NSB with cancellations.
