Easy / Lucky / Hard / Weird scrambles Thread

Ok, but that one was very unsure

He literally said that it was "stupid" and "should not count" and I think that is a clear indication it was fake. If you do something extraordinary and then dont take credit for it there is a good chance you didn't do it legit. If I got a REAL square-1 WB then I would be shouting it from the rooftops and made sure that i was recognized as the real WB holder.

R2 F2 B U B' U' D2 L B' U2 F' D2 U2 F2 B' U2 R2 D2 F' L2

I got this scramble earlier, it's pretty insane/stupid. (I beat my PB...)
2-move xcross, and easy prediction first 2 pair at F2L

This scramble wasn't from csTimer, I was practicing on my smarthphone in an app timer.
Is this a valid scramble?? I don't understand about 4Gen, etc....

y U L U' L' (U' D) F R' F' R Uw // XXX-Cross
R U' R' U R U R' // 4th Pair
U2 M' U M' U2 M U M2 U M' // Solved in 27 STM
This is more than an easy X-Cross.
It's a 10 move XXX-Cross + easy 4th Pair because it basically doesn't move + CLL skip.

y U L U' L' Uw L' U' L D // probably better XXX-Cross but not so good LL

Literally the best solution because LL skip:
y U L U' L' Uw U2 L' U L D // XXX-Cross
U' F' U F // EO
U2 R U' R' U R U R' U // Solved in 23 HTM

Nearly as good:
F' Rw U Rw' (U' D) F' U F D // XXX-Cross
R' U2 R U2 R' y L U' R' U L' U' R F U2 // IF does the job, Solved in 24 HTM

Nice solve but only XX-Cross:
y U L U' L' D2 // XX-Cross
R U' R' Fw R Fw' // 3nd Pair
U2 F' U F // 4th Pair
Rw B Rw' U' M U Rw B' // OLL
R U' S' U2 S U' R2 // Solved in 30 STM

I love playing around with easy scrambles and finding really good solutions lol.

Here's my new pb scramble that I got today it wasn't super lucky I just recognized everything well U' R F R F' D' F R B2 D L2 U2 B2 L2 D L2 B2 D' F2 L2

 

[Sub1Hour]

(1,6)/ (3,-1)/ (-3,0)/ (-1,-2)/ (-2,0)/ (0,-4)/ (4,0)/ (0,-2)/ (-4,0)/ (0,-5)/ (3,0)/ (-3,0)/

This scramble is not only confusing but quite easy, too bad there is parity.

A 2x2 scramble with every piece in the right spot, and only two pieces misoriented. If I only new CLL...
F' U F' U R' U R U2 F2 R'

F' U F' U R' U R U2 F2 R'

I'm sure it's not the most efficient, but using a 3x3 OLL should be pretty fast to solve that?

 

[ProStar]

I'm sure it's not the most efficient, but using a 3x3 OLL should be pretty fast to solve that?

The 3x3 OLL actually is the best OLL in this case, but that leaves PLL

Well, yes! It's a COLL that's just sune antisune. It would be an easy sub-1 solve.

EDIT: Ninja'd by @ProStar but I think that he was talking about a different OLL since the way I do it preserves CP

2x2 scramble that is just a really easy CLL T case

 

[Spacey10]

F' U F' U R' U R U2 F2 R'

Do this scramble on 3x3 lol

 

[Sub1Hour]

This has got to be the shortest square-1 scramble I have ever seen, only 8 slices

(0,-1)/ (-2,1)/ (3,0)/ (3,-3)/ (-1,-4)/ (1,-3)/ (0,-3)/ (-3,0)/

Not super easy, but still nice, got a 9.69 on it.

woah, this scramble has a free pseudo pair as well as a keyhole insert for easy XXX-cross, which doesnt affect last pair, so i 1looked F2L, and then cross case u perm
this is probably the most simple scramble i have ever seen

I also 1 looked F2L but I got a gun OLL and a skip lol

New 2x2 PB with U F U' F2 R' F' U2 R F' (2.11 LBL)

Reconstruction - (Scrambled with White on top and Green in front)
Inspection: X2 (I'm color neutral on 2x2 solving orange)
First Layer: F' R U2 R' U' R U R'
Last Layer: skip

 

[Username: Username:]

BRUH L2 U2 F L2 F' U2 R2 U2 B' D2 F D2 U' L F' L U' L' U B R cross 1 move away from pseudo cross, or if you want you could setup the first pair by doing x2 then U' then R' then align the cross, then the split pair is made.

 

[ExultantCarn]

Stupid solve that I completely choked.

D B2 L U2 L B' U2 D L2 F U B2 R2 U B2 D F2 R2 L2

y2 L' U' L y R' U2 R D' //XXCross + 3 move pair and free pair built
R' U' R //3rd Pair
y' U' F' U F //F2L in 14 Moves
R' U' F U R U' R' F' R //OLL
x R2 D2 R U R' D2 R U' R x' U' //PLL
33 moves
I shouldn't have rotated before LS because of AUF and I also could've cancelled the last R of the OLL into the A perm lol
If I'd done a lefty sledge I would've gotten wide anti sun into U perm but idk if that's any better than what I did.

My time was a 5.166 but that definitely should have been sub 4.5

Spoiler: Click only after trying the scramble

Solved CPLine! I only got a 21.54 because EO took me forever to recognize and 2GLL was kinda bad
EDIT: I got 9.69 one-handed after a few attempts with this solution:
x y // CPLine
U R u R2 U' R u2 U' r // pEO Extension
r U' r' U2' r U r' U2' r2 // EOBF
U R' U2' R' U R' U2' R U' R' // F2L

Damn! Got a 14.xy OH first thing in the morning without any warm up; though I kinda guessed what to expect.

Really lucky solve even after CP line; great F2L and a fast 2GLL.
38 move pure <ruRU> gen solve!
