I want to know what you think about what the best FMC method is. I am thinking about doing FMC sometime. fill out the poll

If you must restrict yourself to one method, DR is undoubtedly the best

Yes, DR is best. Although almost no one who uses DR uses it exclusively.
Of the choices in the poll, I'd probably pick Heise. But even it is terrible by itself.

Best not to think in terms of methods for FMC, it's too restrictive. The best method is flexibility, being able to chase the best options that present themselves.

I chose LBL, cross on top + 12 Look Last Layer is really good for FMC (just kidding)

Picked heise, but I agree with Billabob. Methods are too restrictive for FMC. Perhaps a better question is "what alg sets would be the most useful to learn for FMC?"
I'm not convinced that Heise is any better than Petrus for FMC purposes, assuming that these methods are used in conjunction with NISS and insertions.
Fixing the pseudoblocks alongside solving EO has a move count cost, and ultimately is very similar to how you can often influence EO in Petrus solves by adding 1-2 moves, or failing that, switching to inverse then adding 1-2 moves. I guess if you somehow "forbid" using NISS, then Heise is a better version of Petrus simply due to having the option to build pseudoblocks, but that seems like a silly restriction.
Of all the methods listed in the poll, Petrus has been giving me the best mileage (majority of my FMC solves somewhat resemble Petrus; most of the remainder are EO first) so that got my vote, but domino reduction is predominant among top-level FMC solvers.

It's this method I invented but I wrong add method
Correct section is Speed 3x3.
This an old guide.
The method is CFBL:
Cross, F2L, Block, Line.
Block + Line = Platform.
But in competition I did FMC with Keyhole and Platform.
My best result official in FMC is 57 but I haven't done FMC in a long time.
