I am currently on a path to learning all the advanced algsets completely after being comfortable with UF/UFR 3-style since 2019.

This is the order I have chosen, do let me know if the learning path can be optimized, You can share your unique learning paths as well and the extent upto which you wish to pursue blindsolving for 3x3.
  1. 1c parity (last corner target + UF-UR swap) :22 cases
  2. 2e2e + 2e2e' UF/UR :~50 cases , 2e2e only
  3. floating 2-flip :66 cases
  4. floating 3-style edges :1782 cases
  5. floating 3-style corners :2804 cases
  6. LTCT :220 cases
  7. 2c2e Parity on U layer (ZBLLs cases):~80 cases
  8. 4-flips :495 cases
  9. UF-x/UFR-x parity (any last corner + edge target) :462 cases
  10. floating 2e2e :5940 cases
  11. Twisted 2 corners :126 cases
  12. 2c UF-UR :~50 cases
  13. 4 to 8-mover UF5 :4036 cases
  14. F2E (2e' + buffer flipped) :~50 cases
  15. UF LTEF: 3240 cases
  16. LQs and full UF5 (excluding the 13 and 14 movers as 2 UF3 algs would be faster exec) :126k cases
  17. full 2c2e parity :11088 cases
  18. floating LTCT : a lot of cases
  19. block commutators UF/UFR :81 cases

Notes:
I will edit this post (in the future) to add the total number of algs for each algset which I have copied to my algsheet.
Total algs to learn are a lot but that is how modern blindsolving is 😅

Disclaimers:
  • You can learn these algsets partially as well.
  • You can learn these algsets in parallel or in disjoint fashion.
  • The number of algs in an algset does not determine the complexity of it
  • The use-case for each algset varies, for example CEEC parity is useful in half of the solves whereas convenient time-saving block commutator case might happen once every 200 solves.
  • I am an intermediate level solver, so I do not have functional understand of all the advanced algsets
  • UF5 and some other algsets is still not accepted by the fastest solvers in the community to be feasible, so the list technically should end at point 10 with T2C being the last algset to use.
