I can't really talk, because I suck at OH, but isn't roux bad for OH?

It isn't, full stop. Fahmi averages sub-8 oh with roux

Okay, that's just what I heard. I don't know Roux.

You aren't exactly educating anyone with these kind of messages.
to put it very briefly, most people assume Roux would be bad for OH because of M slice turns, but there's a very nice fingertrick for these involving the table that make M moves viable. Besides that Roux is mostly <rRUFM>gen which is an extremely good move set for OH, that coupled with a lower average movecount compared to most other methods leads to a pretty great OH method

It's been a while since I posted in this thread. Since then, I've been cubing a decent amount, trying to do some deliberate practice with a block trainer and planning FB+DR in inspection. I've been practicing the push R' fingertrick to see if it is faster than the normal R' by doing a bunch of OH RU 2-gen. So far I've done 360 of such practice solves, replacing all normal R's with push R's during both scrambling and solving.
It has been a while since I've done an actual OH ao100, but today I did one, and was happy that I wasn't rusty at all. I got a 14.37 ao100 on stackmat, which is very good.
I'm thinking about learning EG-1 for 2x2 to reduce the pause between SB and CMLL. I'm definitely going to do this anyway at some point, so I think I may start learning these algs tomorrow. I think this will be my third time learning full EG-1, hopefully I don't drop 2x2 and forget all the algs this time!

Today I did 100 3x3 solves on stackmat, getting a 9.60 ao100. This was pretty good, so I decided to do some OH, and then proceeded to get a 13.47 stackmat ao100! This is actually insane, one day later and I'm almost 1 second faster. Hopefully today isn't an exception and my times don't go back up.
