I used CFOP and tried orienting the last layer edges while solving CE pairs. Used ZZLL at the end.

I don't mean to get off topic, but you haven't been speedcubing for 2 months, or you don't actually average 14-19. Also, no one average 14-19 seconds, that's too large of a gap. Just sayin that no one is buying it lol

The thing is, I have been speedcubing for 2 months, averaging 17-20 seconds. 2 months if you do not count the 3 months from 4 years ago when I cubed.
The 14 second part of my average was only because I occasionally get 14-16 seconds (~20%)
