2345BLD Relay 8:41.50[4:20]. Solving order 4523, fairly sure I sub-2ed the 4BLD :)

Holy crap, nice!

But, why did you solve 2 and 3 last?
 
The race to sub 1 is real! (I still use advanced M2 and OP) [emoji14]

A sub-1 single is not very far away! I'm using TuRBo for edges and OP/commutators for corners. I'm really getting the hang of comms so watch out!

My strong point is my execution and think-ahead, but my memo is bad. What're young strong/weak points?

Memo is good, ~30 seconds. However I need to switch to corner comms ASAP.
 
Finished my session today with 9 out of 10 successes

Timed my 3BLD solves for the first time ever and got an 8.52 on my 3rd attempt (after 2 awful failures). Forgot the last part of my edge memo just as I was starting them so when I got to that point had to do the fingertips on stickers and work out what was left to remind myself.
 
CORNER COMMUTATORS (WITH DNFs DELETED)

PB single for corners-only with commutators - 20.81 seconds!! It could've been sub-20 if I hadn't stopped and thought about my FG (Speffz) commutator for so long...

Also, last week I averaged around 45 seconds for corner commutators and after doing 10 solves today (with two horrible times) my average is 32.87 seconds!

(DNF rate has gone down by a lot in the last few days...)

EDIT: If I add my two best corners-only and edges-only times together, I get 48.36 seconds which is sub-50, woo!

With an A9, but I don't know if it's the most efficient way:

[F' (L2) F' R' F (L2) F' R F2]

y' x' R' (D2) R' U' R (D2) R' U R2 x y // set up to [y' x': [D2, R' U' R]] and cancel one move

[y' L': [U2, R' D' R]] // the alg I do

U' R U' R' D R (U2) R' D' R (U') R' U // a bit longer but might be more speed-optimal
