Yeah well it is!

I used to use this. It swaps the bottom front pieces though so you have to know that when making first face or first layer.
The standard ortega alg btw is not the 3x3 one, it's F (sexy)2 F' which does not disturb the first layer

nice alg but whats eg-1?

Eg 1 is a method where you solve 1 side and finish the rest in one alg.

whoa must be hard
so basically:
EG-1 is a method where the bottom of the 2x2 is a completed face in a j perm. You put the solved bar on the back, and look at the OLL case. You use one alg to complete the cube. There's also EG-2, where the bottom is a diagonal swap, or f perm. You also use one algorithm to complete the cube.
Combined with CLL, there are a total of 120 algorithms to memorize.
A lot of EG-1 is intuitive actually, you just randomly swap the bottom front pieces with each other, and you'll end up with an EG algorithm.
I use the F (sexy)2 F' alg for CLL
I JUST BROKE MY 2x2 PB WITH THE EG-1 ALG YOU GAVE @nigelthecuber
so the scramble is:

10 moves in 0.712 seconds, and I have no idea how I did that so quickly because my tps was 14.04

nice! 0.71 is quite fast
That's a completely different case.
