R2 D R U' R2 D' B D' R U' F2 D R2 B2 U' F2 B2 L2 B2 D2

xxcross is ez mode. I also found one solution to OLL skip -> G perm, but F2L comes out to 26 moves, which maybe could be done better.

Spoiler: 26 HTM to PLL

Here is a good scramble for the Corners first method L2 D B2 L2 F2 U' B2 L2 D' B2 D' L D B R' D' F' U' F2 U2 R' U

21.10 nonlucky for me, for Guimond this scramble is perfectly normal.

Scramble = B2 D2 B L2 F U’ D2 F2 B’ U2 D2 L’ U D’ L2 B D2 R2 U’ D’ L F2 L U2 L’

I started the solve with a Ua-perm. It's not the optimal cross in terms of move count but it is a fast alternative.

It was fun to start the solve by executing one of my fastest PLLs.

No reason... it just didn't occur to me at the time. Thanks for the tip.

fast speedFMC attempt on your first scramble qqwref:

D B' L2 D B
D' L' F . L
F2 D' F2 D F2 D' F2 F D2

. = B2 L F' L' B2 L F L' = 24 Moves

there is probably a better solution but this one is nice

Edit:
wtf for the second scramble:
B‘ D L F D‘ F‘ D
B2 D‘ B‘
D2 R‘ B2 R

solution for the second scramble:
B' D L F D' F' D.
B2 D' B'
D2 B R' B : R B D2

. = R F R‘ B2 R F‘ R‘ B2
: = B L B‘ R B L‘ B‘ R‘ - 26 Moves

Here is a scramble that I did a terrible cross on(fairly normal for me) but ended up with a nice xcross plus another F2L paired up,

Scramble: R L F2 D' R' F' D' L' U' L D R' F2 R2 F2 L R2 U L' D U R2 F' D' B

x2 y' L' U B2 L F' L' y F' R U R' F2 // XCross + paired F2L
Not sure what I did after that, but the whole xcross threw me off because I'm not used to it lol

D' R F2 R2 U F2 B' L2 U' F2 U2 D2 B' R2 D2 B U2 F B2 L2
Really easy F2L. Even with the slower J perm, I got a NL sub-18 time: that's over a second faster than my best lucky time with a PLL skip!

Im was like... Did I really scramble this correctly? XD
Top cross finished you don't even have to adjust it... Got this from qqtimer.

top cross would be 5 moves with 2 free pairs above their slots. 3/4 move inserts cancelled into a back pair, wide antisune into Jperm got 10.13, I stopped the timer at 9.97, it stopped for a bit, then jumped to 10.13 (jjtimer on a really laggy phone)

LL-skip, and I didn't get a PB -_-. It was a terrible solve, it could have easily been sub-9 or something, but instead I got 12...

It has 7 edges placed correctly. seriously?

(got a weak cfop solve with it. Fml)
