How do you do the EOLine fluently OH? I spend too much time trying not to drop the cube.

What constant TPS should you get for Sub 10 and Sub 7? or Sub 8?
Just wondering!

(average movecount)/(time)
E.g. if your average movecount is 60:
Sub 10: 60/10 = 6 tps
Sub 7: 60/7 = 8.57 tps
Sub 8: 60/8 = 7.5 tps

Is there a way to practice only a certain ZBLL subset? Like only H, or U or whatever..
Or even better, only a certain COLL case and all its ZBLL cases?

Where can I find, good fast advanced f2l algs or simple normal f2l algs? I am guessing some of my intuitive f2l is a little bit slow and takes too many turns!

Mostly,
Holding the cube in a way that minimizes awkward moves helps. For example, doing the EOLine a y away from your orientation to minimize weird F and B moves. But really, just practice.

What, practise!? OH? Why would I do something like that?
A more serious question; how often do you rotate during your EOLine? You have to do L/R moves during EOLine too, so doing a y rotation won't help with them.

A good question. I'm pretty sure my EOLine is far less fluid than it could be. Depending on the scramble, I probably end up with only 1-2 rotations (semi-blind guess) because I tend to do single F's and L's without rotating. Wide moves are a good way to combine moves and rotations.
I think I'm going to go watch some of Phil's example solves...

Well I rotate to make pretty much everything LUD except maybe F moves, so I rotate and pause a lot during EOLine. I also use weird colours for my EOLine (orange on U and blue on F; I then do the left F2L, a z rotation and finish with yellow on U), so I have to think much more, even though EO isn't actually that much different to yellow/blue. I think these problems could be fixed by me actually practising... but who has time for that?

Maybe just dealing with some of the awkward moves (practice
) is faster than rotating.Also, may I ask why you solve things in that order?

Yeah, I should probably practise before Euro.Maybe just dealing with some of the awkward moves (practice
Also, may I ask why you solve things in that order?
I don't know, I started doing that very early on. I use ZZ-porky v1, so I need the white/red 2x2x3 solved first in every solve. By doing it in that order, I can ensure that I solve that 2x2x3 and can still do CP and finally finish in the normal orientation. I'm not y-axis neutral for OH (like I am with ZZ 2H) because that would make CP recognition harder than it is already. I know I could do the normal EOLine, a z' rotation, right block and then a z rotation, but then that adds in an extra rotation. I think I must have thought this way would be better to reduce rotations. EO recognition is no different to white/yellow on U/D though; it's just the opposite way round. Another advantage I just thought of while typing this is that by not having white on D, I'm not tempted to create the F2L pair and then insert the cross edge; I sometimes pair the corner with the D layer edge when it's faster. So one bad habit gets rid of another one

is there a scrambler that can give me 104 copy-pastable random-state-scrambles at once?

Try mark2. It'll do it.

I feel like this is a little higher for most people, I turn around 7 but I'm not sub 9 yet.

How many LL cases are there when the EO is already done?

493, couldn't you have just googled that?

I'm not even sure what I would Google for honestly. The best page I found, that has the answer is here:
http://www.speedsolving.com/forum/showthread.php?40778-Last-Layer-Options
But, I didn't really know which one applied to what I was asking.
I guess what I'm describing is ZBLL? I have seen that, but I didn't know what it meant.
Also, this is the one question answer thread. I'm pretty sure my kind of question is exactly what this thread is intended for.
So, thank you for the answer, but maybe work a bit on your etiquette.
