Is there any algorithms that can fix this?

I learned from "dan brown" on youtube ... I don't know what the method is called.

The method is call Fridrich method.

Please don't say that. The only thing similar in these two methods is the first 7-8 moves (Actually the first moves are also completely different for the most part). The last thing we need is more people using the dan brown method thinking that its the method people are setting world records with.

I think the method is acturaly the old Dan Knights method im not sure though (its a type of lbl i use to use it)

Nononononono. This is one of the LBL methods.


He's a beginner. Why don't we stop throwing specific case algs at him?

What you should do here is simply insert any other random edge into the slot, then reinsert the edge so that it's oriented properly. Use the 2 algorithms you already know.

He's doing that as a temporary solution to the problem.

Thats what I was thinking, but thats not the fridrich mentality now is it?

He's not using Fridrich, though. He doesn't need to starting thinking like he his until he decides to learn it, if he decides to learn it.
 
If you use keyhole (IMHO a good intermediary between Dan Brown and Fredrich), you can fix it between your second and third edges in 3 moves...

I first learned with Dan Brown, and the simple fact is that his method is absurdly inefficient and slow. Even as a beginner method it is TERRIBLE.

The thing he does right, however, is his explanation. It's his explanation, not his method, that makes it easy. So in that respect, its a good video. The problem is obviously that we don't want people thinking that it's a viable speedcubing method.

What actually really annoyed me was his video on getting faster. He says that there's really no faster way to do 2L other than his method (which takes 8 moves per edge insertion), and another 8 if you have the scenario OP shows us.


OP: My recommendation for you is to either learn keyhole (3 moves per edge insertion, 8 for the last one) or go straight to Fredrich. I have a video on keyhole if you want, otherwise I recommend you look for a user on YT named badmephisto, and try to learn Fredrich from him. Learning the Roux or Petrus methods may also be a good idea, or the new ZZ method. Of these I think Fredrich is the easiest to transition into and grasp for someone coming from Dan Brown's method.

Either way, now that you can solve it with Dan Brown's method, the best way to get faster is to solve it without his method.
 
You need to use the same algorithm to get it out,
then do U2 to get it in place and do the algorithm again
