BOP method (Block, 6co, 6cp)

  1. 1x1x2 block (this takes 1-3 moves, however on most scrambles it is already solved)
  2. 6co(similar to metha 6co , orintate remaining 6 corners)(71 cases)
3.6cp(also similar to metha 6cp, permutate remaining 6 corners)(47 cases)

stats:

average move count: possibly 15-20, with algs for 6co and 6cp optimised for 2x2 being generated

number of algs: 118

Variations:
Beginner BOP

  1. 1x1x2 block
2.6co- 1(orientate df and db corners)

3.6co-2(oll)

4. 6cs(put white corners in bottom layer and yellow corners in top layer)

5. 6cp(permunate the rest of the cube)

stats:

average move count: 20-25

number of algs:12

i was just thinking about this same idea! I didn’t post it though because i thought the algs would be too much…
 
I am bumping this post to announce that I have finished genning algs for both 2x2 6co and 6cp and the stats are promising. I will post them here after I am done sorting them.
6co - 4.5 stm
6cp - 7.1 stm
This means than if the first step takes an average of one move(which it does), 1 + 4.5 + 7.1 = 12.6 stm, which means that it would be quite efficient. Add auf to it and it averages 13.6 moves

I'm going to correct you, but it will be a correction that you find pleasing: You add 3/4 = 0.75 for AUF, not 1
 
Thank you I don't know much about calculating move count, this makes it even better for me
Also it appears that you only seemed to of taken into account 1 auf.
To my knowledge there should be 3.
1 for setting up 6co (unless you lesrn more algs to have not auf)
1 for setting up 6cp (once again, unless you learn more algs for no auf)
And 1 more for AUF after 6cp.
Also would it be better to do 6cp before 6co ? That might allow for better algs for each case (idk tho).

So if im correct the mc is 14.85 ?

I might be wrong, so take this with a grain of salt.
