Round 95

Race to sub-30
Method: Petrus
Average: 37.624
36.670, 36.867, 41.211+, (42.192), 34.128, 41.658, (29.528), 39.484, 32.509, 39.902, 38.641, 35.166

The EO+2GF2L step is killing me. I can do ZZ EO very easily, but I'm only y/z2 neutral with ZZ. For blockbuilding, full color neutrality is essential in my opinion, making my EO very tough. On the bright side, I was averaging over a minute last time I speedsolved Petrus. No clue what happened to make me drop 25 seconds with no practice XD.

I hope it isn't too late for round 95. I usually solve without inspection, so I probably am not getting as much out of it as I can.

I am using CFOP. I don't think that would make a difference, but I am using CFOP.

I am using CFOP. I don't think that would make a difference, but I am using CFOP.

Some methods (from my experience) tend to have more deviations in times than other methods. I main CFOP (sub-20 average), but the method I'm trying to get sub-30 in is Petrus. In Petrus, you do have good scrambles and bad scrambles. Some 2x2x2 blocks are 2 or 3 moves long, while others I can't even plan out in inspection.

5-6 moves 2x2x2 blocks are more frequent so you should try to see like 5 move far. To help doing that Kit Clement mentioned at website in the FMC seminar at US Nats 2015 and if you practice trying to find the 5 moves 2x2x2 or even any n moves 2x2x2 using the same approach as Cross+ BLD you could plan a righty of 2x2x2 blocks during inspection.

Only better by about 3 seconds form last week, but hey, 3 seconds is a definite improvement. Also, these scrambles are not the ones I used. csTimer just shows these.
