You don't need COLL. I am sub 29 sec OH and I use 2 look OLL and full PLL.

Yeah...the world totally revolves around you.

Anyway, I would try to stabilize your turning technique first. Then you will be able to look for algs. There are a lot of good algs out there but some of them won't fit the way you turn. Once you figure out the way you turn it'll make deciding what you should learn easier.

EOLine's difficulty is definately overrated, its pretty easy, I can fully inspect it all in 8 seconds

Making the EO line as fast as a well-versed CFOP user's cross is possibly the most painful thing I've ever tried to do in cubing.

I wasn't warmed up for the start and I was getting fatigued in the end. Still an amazing session for me. The new cube really helped, thanks a lot

Edit: 50 solves in one sitting is an accomplishment in itself for me too lol

Making the EO line as fast as a well-versed CFOP user's cross is possibly the most painful thing I've ever tried to do in cubing.

I said easy, not fast ;D I'm super slow and I only had to hear them say 8 seconds one time while still inspecting, the other times my hands were already on the stackmat waiting for the light

Most, not all, of the complaints I hear about people who have tried eoline is people saying they simply can not inspect it in anything close to 15 seconds. Which is why you are going to get an EoXCross skip with a LL skip in all 5 scrambles of your next comp....right?

 

[freshcuber]

When I started ZZ and averaged like 40 seconds 2H I took a full fifteen seconds to inspect and I'd count seven edges, so I'd inspect for another fifteen seconds and still count seven lol

 

[Tall5001]

Learned roux which im am quite proud of. Also when i was averaging 45 seconds i got a 23.xx single!! thats awesome! now i average 35 after about a week of practice! way to go for fast progress!

Switched from (18-ish) CFOP to Roux in mid-January. I'm pretty happy with my progress, and I hit this major barrier just in time for my first comp. I'm ascited.
