I'm back with an insane scramble: L U' F' R' L' B' R' L2 F' D R2 B2 U' L2 U' B2 U2 F2 L2 D2
I did the 'correct' (?) start of the F2l, but I didn't do the WV alg, which would have given me a 'LL skip' instead of antisune -> G perm
The idea is that y x2 D B D R' F R2 U2 R D is an xcross solution which intentionally sets up a free pair. Yes, there are good enough finger tricks for this. Then doing the free pair with U R U' R' gives another free pair, which I didn't quite plan, but it's a lucky coincidence. Insert that pair with y' U L' U L, and you can pair up the last pair with U' R U2 R'. The WV alg here is U R' D R2 D' R2 U' R2 D R2 D' R U. There is probably a better alg for that case, but this is a cancellation into a ZBLL alg I also use for 3BLD.

Great scramble for Roux, 2 moves FB. I do CFOP though, I went with y2 x D Lw B R' U' R X-cross minus 1 cross edge.

my y’ U’ R U’ R’ U’ f R’ f U L ‘ U L after your cross solution then do the ZB alg if u know it (I don’t) then easy sub5 jk

B2 D R2 D' L2 B2 R2 D2 R2 F2 D2 U' L' R B' L' B2 U' R2 U B

This scramble had an easy cross and f2l if you solve the cross like this:

x2 R2 U' R' F R D' R' D'

(There is a pair solved in the back slot, take it out and insert it into the correct slot and you'll see the rest from there)

Easy 2-gen single move only 6 move scramble

B2 L' B' R2 U2 F2 R2 F' D2 B' U2 L2 U2 R2 D' F' L2 D' B2 U L
best scram for roux solvers

 

[JDAW6]

B2 L' B' R2 U2 F2 R2 F' D2 B' U2 L2 U2 R2 D' F' L2 D' B2 U L
best scram for roux solvers

I don’t think roux solvers can do CN roux (correct me if wrong.)

also god roux scram

U B U2 F2 R2 D R2 D2 F2 R2 F' R D2 B R' D2 F2
x z' U' Rw' F2 R' D' R DU2 R' D' R U2 R' D R // planned cross and first 2 pairs while intentionally making a next free pair
L U2 L' U' L U L' // the free pair doesn't get disturbed so doing this first is easier in terms of look ahead
y U R B U' B' R' // ZBLS
U2 R U2 R' U' F' R U2 R' U' R U' R' F R U' R' U' // glad I didn't forget *all* my ZBLLs

Not the best thing ever but I thought the start had a concept cool enough to share.

Edit: U B U2 F2 R2 D R2 D2 F2 R2 F' R D2 B R' D2 F2
x2 D R U' R' L' // x-cross
U' R' U2 R U R' U' R //planned first pair
Uw' U' L' U' L U L' U' L D // I knew I would be able to do a pseudo solution here but I didn't know exactly how
R' U' F U R U' R' F' R // OLL
U' R2 U R' U R' U' R U' R2 U'D R' U R D' // G perm

I don’t think roux solvers can do CN roux (correct me if wrong.)

Good scramble, some roux solvers are full CN, but most roux solvers (like myself) are just x2 y CN

Super easy 2x2 scramble I got a minute ago. Huge pb fail 0.59 +2 (downsolved to a 0.55). R' U F R F U' R' F' R' (5 moves 2 gen)

also god roux scram

It is possible to do full CN roux. As someone who is CN with CFOP, I will say roux is harder to do CN with. Also, I think you don’t get the same boost with CN roux as you would with CN cfop

UR5- DR2- DL6+ UL5- U3- R2+ D5- L1- ALL6+ y2 U5- R5- D3- L5+ ALL6+ DL
Crazy clock scramble for 7-simul. The memo is literally OO -1 OO. I, of course, DNF'ed it.

 

[Celeritardum]

Another super good roux scramble: (I got 0.03 off of pb single) D' B2 D2 B2 L2 B2 D' L2 B2 L' D' B2 R F' D F L' D

Insane clock scramble that wast posted on a Korean cubing community. Apparently someone got 1.97 on this.

This was an officially generated scramble at Spokane Summer 2023, Round 1, Group A, Solve 1

U' R' F R U R' U' F' R U R'


Inspection: x’ z’

CLL layer: U2 L’ U’ L

Last layer skip, no AUF

This scramble could have potentially had a WR on it.

 

[Bingus cuber]

Dang! I got a 0.78 on that. U' F R F R2 F' R' U R2 is a 4-mover, got a 0.91 on it. 3 move green layer, then a U' last layer skip.
