Ortega Move Count

[CAT13]

Does anyone know the average move count for a whole 2x2 solve using the Ortega method? I want to know because I just want to make sure that I am doing it all correctly.
And also, does anyone know the average move count (and maybe max count) for orienting the first layer? thanks

my average for the 1st layer is about 3-4, and i can usually predict the OLL. This is because i am color neutral. If you are solving on white it could take 3-7 moves.

I will do a move count in about 5 minutes.

5 solves using ortega:

25 moves
18 moves
21 moves
19 moves
17 moves

i often count. expect 15-20 for color neutral with a 3 move avg FL. if you new to ortega you probably get around 4-4.5 avg FL. average once you have mastered it should be 3 moves. i just did about 25 FLs on what looked like the most difficult color and only once did i have a 6 move solution. that may have been me being bad though. definitely 4-5 max with color neutrality.

Edit: redid that 6 move into 4
setup(FL on top):
R' D' R2 D' R D'
4 move solution: D' F' D R
6 move solution: D R' D R2 D R
