Various versions of this chart have been floating around Discord for a while, so I thought it would be beneficial to share with others. Normally, this wouldn't warrant it's own thread, but I think it's more important than many current threads.
It compares algorithm count and move count for several popular Last Slot / Last Layer variants for methods that orient edges beforehand (Petrus, ZZ, Heise, ie good methods). Frequency-normalized movecount statistics are either exact or calculated from a large number of HARCS solution simulations with popular published algorithm sets.
The closer you are to the origin, the better "bang for your buck". If a variant is both below and to the left of another variant (of the same number of looks), it is superior in these categories. The red line is a quadratic fit to the data, drawn for reference. Information on these variants can be found on the wiki.
Thoughts/comments?
