yes! this is what I was talking about in my original reply (except for using S moves as you did in one of your example solve) also, check out this method where I use 2-gen CO, then DR and then HTO reduction (and it has variants where CP and EO are done first/early)

you may want to have a look at the second half of this method a beginner version of this method would be to simply do CO and then EP number of algorithms: 1~4, depending on how you count (for me the number of algorithms is 0, since this method is intuitive for me) inspection: I usually solve...

@Devagio don't be discouraged by all the negativity around you, remember that each and every creative venture throughout the history of mankind have gone through what you and your ideas are going through now. go ahead with what you are doing and know that there are also those of us who support...

great idea! I also consider myself an intuitive solver, and for similar reasons as you mentioned (don't want to lose my skills after a long break). and yes, I had a hard time finding resources too. please let me know how I can contribute.

I kept adding more and more details to my previous posts in this thread (in order to avoid double or triple posts), so much so that after about 2 months those posts have now become huge, with spoilers inside spoilers (spoiler-ception lol) so I thought I should make this post and settle this...

or maybe you can solve corners directly? - with a repeated trigger and its mirror and inverse (8355 style), although this is not very efficient - with two corner 3-cycles (Heise style), but this may have parity since edges are not solved yet (could someone please confirm this parity? does it...

you may be interested in this new method too this is a pure blockbuilding method, virtually no algorithm needed

yes, your method is cool, fits into your own criteria quite nicely you may want to have a look at this method right here, I think you might like it... like your method this one also has many steps but still a relatively low move count, and like your method this one also can be optimized with...

FMC or speed? still experimenting with it, cannot say anything definite yet edit: example solve and other relevant info added to the original proposal
