meh, it just gets hard for me. I dont plan ahead like most do. Ima 1 min solve guy, and so I just go along with it. I dont plan or expect a certain OLL to come up or such. Im pretty early in it.
Very few if any people look ahead to OLL from their last f2l pair, although some do try and make it better by orienting the edges. The cross has nothing to do with OLL. I suggest you look at badmephisto's cross tutorial.
