Easy / Lucky / Hard / Weird scrambles Thread

holy
I got a 10.35 first try on this scramble (with your cross solution so kinda cheating but alright) - an absolutely INSANE F2L (22 moves) with 51 moves in total because of the Y perm at the end but still crazy (4.9 TPS for me which is awesome considering I always throw the crazy scrambles straight into the bin because I start freaking out midway into the solve lol).

WHAT
How did you get 4.29?!?!?!? Was it a downsolve or first try??? I know I really suck but 9.7 is like my 5th ever sub 10 so yeah

It's amazing to see people so fast! Also, how in the world did I miss your solution with 2 free pairs

second try (I got a 4.74 first try)

I would personally prefer this alg for that ZBLl since it's shorter and I feel like it has better ergonomics too, but that's just me.

I use the brian sun ZBLL alg and I don’t really like it either. Basically what I’m trying to say is I’m using an “old” alg
