4 move pseudo xcross and relatively easy f2l, got my PB with this one

you missed the 9 move xxcross

Spoiler: spoiler

x2
r D R’ U2 x’ U R U’ R’ D

Just do it from the other angle to make it 7 moves (x' z U L D' Lw U' R D), you even get 2 free pairs

x' z U L D' Lw U' R (Uw U') // xx-cross
F2 Lw' U2 Lw // last 2 pairs
F' L F L' U' L' U L // OLL
M2 U' M U2 M' U' M2 U2 // PLL

My time was 4.18, the scramble has a lot of potential for insane times but doesn't have great fingertricks/ergonomics. It could be good for left handed people since it has a lot of lefty moves

With that scramble I got a 10.42 on OH a couple days ago. Not PB, my best OH time is 8.45, but still a crazy scram.
Try it!

Bro… on BOTH the first 2 scrambles there was 3 CROSS PIECES ALREADY SOLVED, AND THE 2ND SCRAMBLE HAD A PAIR IN THE CORRECT SPOT (iirc). Also, ignore the 3rd scramble and time please

When YOU get over 20 seconds, it's funny. BUT WHEN I (/j)

After the x cross try a different first pair. It's really efficient.

I got a 16.38 with this solution:
x2 y
B R2 F’ R //xcross
and then I did a y and your second pair solution but from the back, rotating, and finishing in the same way.
