Gogo sub 3.

Ortega ?? How is that possible ??

Optimal move side, OLL prediction, looking at what your bottom case is, looking ahead during the solve, and speed.

You can get sub 3 avg's of 100 that way.

or you could just use Petrus.

for 2x2?

 

[antoineccantin]

for 2x2?

Which would essentially be CLL.

2x2 block -> finish FL -> CLL (no ELL)

What the heck?!?!? Thou I use a LanLan 2x2 and Ortega I still get sub 6 but sub 4 is just jaw dropping.

Or just learn EG and do it with much less effort and much more potential

@OP:

Nice solves, but you're not using that much inspection. You could definitely stand to take a bit longer and try to predict the OLL/PBL.

120 vs 3 new algs... hmm which one is the really obvious one to choose.

Unless you are looking to break the world record Ortega is better. If you just want to sub 3, learn Ortega. What I listed does not take a whole lot of work.

Tried for a long time but 15 seconds is just too short.

It's really only ~60 if you know OLL, but I suppose that's fair enough if you're not really inclined to learning algs.

I'm still of the opinion that EG is the easier route if your end goal is sub 3.

Tried for a long time but 15 seconds is just too short.

Keep trying it's worth the effort to try to even just predict the orientation of one or two corners, if you can.

It's not that bad
