What's an efficient way to slove 2 twisted?
Click to expand...

Do insertions like you would any other case. 2 twisted is the least restrictive out of the cases that require two insertions, as on the first insertion, you need to involve any solved corner of your choice and those two corners in any way, meaning you will likely cancel 6 moves on the first insertion alone.
 
My Solution to last weeks (week 56) Weekly FMC

Scramble: L2 D2 R2 B' R' U' F2 B' D2 F U' B2 D L B U' L' F2 D2 L

Solution: L' B D' U' (4/4) 1x2x3
B L' B' L' B R2 (6/10) pseudo 2x2x3
L2 F L' F (4/14) pseudo F2L
FL F' L2 B L' F L B' L F' L' (12/26
R' (1/27) fix pseudoness

Final Solution:L' B D' U' B L' B' L' B R2 L2 F L' F2 L F' L2 B L' F L B' L F' L' R' (26 moves)
 
Scarmble from PB Smashathon 2015- L U2 B2 L B2 U2 R' U2 F2 L' R' F R' U' B2 D2 B' L2 R' B2 D'
Was a very hard scramble for me. No 1 move 1x1x2 blocks.
The best I could find in 1 hour was a 37. Please try the scramble and tell a good solution.

I found 3 one movers on inverse pretty quickly. You can also do EO like this on inverse (R' F' B U') which sets a pair up. Not going to bother doing a full attempt right now, but it definitely seems like you had little to work with.

inverse,
R' L2 F2 L' D2//2x2x2
normal R U F2 R2 F//2x2x3
or...
Doing stuff on JARCS gave this 2x2x3+EO with an super easy F2L-1 after 2x2x2: U2 R2 F2 R' F U R F2 U.
Then simply inserting the final F2L pair gives OLL skip U perm and IF says 29 is optimal to solve.

On inverse R2 U' L2,
or: premoves L2 U R2 on normal, solve 4 ce pairs.
 
Thanks everyone. It was stupid of me to not try starting on the inverse scramble. I will surely look to the starts given by everyone. But indeed, the scramble is hard.
 
I just got a 21,00 rolling Mean of 3 at home, from the Berkeley online competition and the first two scrambles of the German forum competition. :eek:
