Maybe it was obvious to Feliks, but I think it's pretty awesome how he chose to do break up the obvious already made pair on the green cross to do a different x cross with a better continuation. Its also awesome how he didn't do the obvious 2nd pair first. I love it when fast solves are fast because the solver did something smart.

Feels bad to be Mats, ahaha. But congratulations to Faz for claiming the title of WR single holder back finally! It was a shock to see this pop up so suddenly, but I'm not altogether surprised in the end - a well deserved result!
