Another petrus hybrid. (please don't shoot me)

Yesterday I was messing with petrus method, and I had a brilliant, innovating idea (not).

1 - Cross
2 - Two adjacent F2l pairs
3 - L6E
4 - last block
5 - COLL / OLL
6 - EPLL / PLL

If you do the cross and two adjacent f2l slots, you can to L6E, you will always have the cross piece oriented, so you would check the last 6 edges and use an alg to solve it. :cool: IMA GENIUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111one

Step 1+2 should be freestyle, the objective is to do a double x cross with 2 adjacent pairs. Do the way you want.
In the end you would do l6E with 1 edge solved on RD. That's the main (and only) advantage on this "method" (not a method.). =P

....................

The problem is: sometimes you have opposite, really easy f2l pair, but you are supposed to do adjacent pairs only.

Just wanna see what you guys think, and before commenting, just want to say again that I know its not new or inovating, its lazy petrus, like every other variation.

Most of the time, I think you're wasting moves to solve the cross piece with the 2x2x3. You might be better off trying to influence EO with your blockbuilding, but that's difficult in a speedsolve.
 
Cross is 6 moves, 1F2L is 7, 2F2L is 7. That makes 22 moves.
2x2x2 is 6 moves, 2x2x3 is 6 moves, solving another edge is 2 moves. That makes 14 moves.

Having an edge solved isn't much of an advantage either if you block build (which you should) the 2x3x3.
