Sub 20 with LBL method?

Just tried:
Cross, Corner1, Corner2, Corner3, Corner4, Edge1, Edge2, Edge3, Edge4, Edge OLL, Corner OLL, PLL (If you know it), Corner PLL, Edge PLL (for a beginner 4 look last layer)
5, (4, 3, 4, 3), (8, 8, 8, 7), (6, 7), 17 or 13 + 10
6, (4, 3, 3, 6), (7, 8, 8, 8,), (12, 8), 12 or 9 + 10
5, (3, 4, 3, 7), (8, 8, 15, 8), (6, 11), 12 or 9 + 10
5, (0, 4, 6, 3), (8, 8, 8, 8), (12, 8), 13 or 13 + 0
5, (3, 3, 5, 7), (8, 8, 7, 8), (6, 9), ?? or 9 + 9

Edges take a lot of moves, but by using keyhole I get:
7, (4, 5, 6), (4, 4, 4, 5), (7), (0 + 9), 10 or 0 + 10
7, (4, 3, 4), (3, 4, 3, 4), (7), (6 + 7), ?? or 9 + 10
7, (3, 3, 4), (3, 4, 4, 4), (8), (6 + 8), 10 or 9 + 1
6, (3, 3, 3), (4, 4, 4, 8), (7), (6 + 9), 15 or 13 + 12
6, (4, 3, 4), (3, 4, 3, 4), (8), (6 + 8), 10 or 0 + 10

CFOP:
8, (7, 7, 7, 10), (0 + 9), ?? or 9 + 9
7, (3, 8, 6, 7), (6 + 8), ?? or 9 + 12
6, (7, 3, 6, 7), (6 + 8), 11 or 9 + 10
9, (5, 7, 7, 3), (6 + 8), 16 or 13 + 12
4, (6, 8, 6, 7), (6 + 7) 13 or 0 + 13

I didn't use any shortcuts and didn't "notice" cancellations. Just the solves as I would have performed them. If I would have used (R2 U2) *3 shortcuts I could have saved some moves for the beginner solution

?? means I don't know that PLL :(
 
Yes it's possible

This guy can do sub 20 LBL F2L average.....
He even got a 9 second one!!! LBL F2L!!!!!:eek:

His LBL average is like 28 seconds!!!!:eek:

LBL (cross + 4 corners + 4 edge + EOLL + OCLL + PLL):

18.48, (17.36), 21.60, (POP), 19.33, 26.03, 29.88, 24.52, 23.72, 21.43, 18.30, 25.91 > 22.92 avg

I reckon I can do it. The first five are 19.80 avg. In the middle, I got a lot of annoying flipped edges...

Not even rolling..
 
Alright:
18.54, (22.93), (16.92 PLL skip), 20.98, 19.19, 19.59, 20.40, 19.58, 19.63, 18.28, 19.54, 21.43 > 19.72 avg
And after 43 solves of that Nakajima-speed twisting (lookahead is insane for LBL), my fingertips are still cold...
(SD: 0.99)

EDIT: 17.87, 18.10, (22.30), 17.42, (15.89) > 17.80 avg5
I don't think the 15.89 was actually lucky...

Also: (22.30), 17.42, 15.89, 20.96, 21.66, 20.99, 18.75, 21.53, 21.70, 18.87, 17.25, (15.17) > 19.50 avg
(No so sure about the 15; it wasn't a PLL skip.)

My latest LBL average.
Still trying.

Another question. Do you guys rotate alot when slotting in the corners and edges? Cause i do.

chaotarroo: When you post times from an average, it's nice if you post the average with it. ;-)

Anyhow, this is a vid of my "speed LBL." Now Harris or Yu Nakajima needs to make a faster one. ;)

My best is (look in my sig) I am starting to meorize PLL. I have done the common simple ones which pop up commonly.
 
Yes, here it is:

More about this video
Me solving the cube in 19.74 average (16.33, 22.63, 18.89, 20.67, 20.58, 20.20, (23.70), 19.84, 17.58, (15.91), 18.52, 22.13)
Using the main beginners method (LBL for F2L and 4 Look Last Layer):
1. Cross
2. Corners first layer
3. Edges 2nd layer
4. Orient edges last layer
5. Orient corners last layer
6. Permute corners last layer
7. Permute edges last layer (
