My .61 2x2 PR isn't a 4 mover, but it's quite as good.....

start on green, hold the bar on left, basic insert front corner (Green, White, Red), and cancel into back corner (Green, Yellow, Red)(5-mover)
 
I CAN'T STOP
Yeah, me neither...

I'm stunned, I'm capable of getting world class results like this, I NEVER thought I would get close to WR anytime soon, but here I am literally 0.16 away

Posted about this in my progression thread btw

Also because of this I now have an ao5 faster than my PB6 single??

This OH solve I got had some crazy potential, I had a huge ZBLL recog pause so this could have been sub 10. 6.39 down-solve too.

Another random lucky solve. This time 3x3 on orange cross, stackmat.

@precompsubwr I know you like to do a lot of these easy scrambles, so what's your initial solution and what is your best down-solve solution and times? Also if you got this would you do orange or a different colour, since white is also pretty good?

I initially planned a single pair, but it ended up being a pseudo-pair, so I got a free xxcross from that, then pair 3 and 4 are really easy to spot even on orange, then OLL and PLL was a quick transition.

Not @precompsubwr (wish I was tho, bro’s so cool and smart), but as someone experimenting with potentially switching from DCN to full CN by only doing easy CN scrambles, I would definitely do orange in these scenarios, even in an official solve, as on my first attempt with this solve (which ended up being a 4.67) I could plan a solution (actually your solution) that I knew would be cross+2 in about 5 seconds (not even counting the pseudo pair in the xcross, making everything I planned cross+3).

I downsolved to a 3.49 with around a low 2 F2L.
My solution was exactly the same as yours into LL (I did not look at your solution) where I instead did

U R U2’ R’ U2’ R’ F R F’ //OLL
U R U R’ U R’ U’ R2 U’ R’ U R’ U R U // PLL

Basically the same solution, but I think a little bit faster In my case as Ua perm is faster than Ja perm for me

If I do a z rotation before the scramble it shows up on yellow which for some reason I am more comfortable with

Solution is the same as @Cubist-Guitar, I can't really turn that fast rn
