Does 3x3x2 PBL exist?

[Findnf]

Just a question if there is alg sheet please?

I don't think so because the alg set would be huge (im guessing 900+ algs) and useless because it is not an event. There is PLL:

3x3x2 PLLs

true over 900 algs is a lot of algs but just because it Non-WCA it doesn’t mean its not worth it

True, if it is worth it depends on your goals. I meant to say it probably doesn't exist, because the probability of anyone thinking it is worth the time creating the algs and learning them is very small.

Have you ever heard of blockbuilding?

You can easily gen them with the batch solver

Yes lol. but im talking algorithmic PBL

learning 900 algs for an unofficial puzzle is nuts.

Tough to get started with it.

I mean people don't even learn 900 algs for 3 by 3

You all keep throwing out that 900 number off of somebody's random guess but has anyone actually verified that?
I'm thinking 22 x 22 = 484 algs, no? Mirror cases U/D might cut that even further. Still a lot but you're getting closer to the point of identifying good subsets to pick and learn.
Now as far as the practicality of this, I would have to guess that the prevalence of half moves would really keep PBL from being a realistic speedsolving method- but I would be curious to see how it could stack up to optmized blockbuilding.

Parity exists
Edit: I don't know how 3x3x2 works, but if a 2-swap on edges is impossible, which makes sense to me, you can match every pbl case to a pbl case on sq1 for a csp user, which makes for 968 cases including pbl skip, so 967 algs.
If a 2-swap is possible, that would make the alg count even greater.
