Roux, 34. The LSE has a very nice EOLR solution that's worth looking at. Also nice multi-slotting in SB

No funky anti-PLLs this time - just a 26-move F2L into an unremarkable LL case.

39 HTM - Saw an easy 2x2x2 and then EO solved itself. Got really lucky, probably lowest movecount speedsolve ever, and very close to my PB single. I actually mostly use CFOP or Hex-F. Knowing random cases from everything can be useful (CLS, WV, TTLL, BLE, COLL, etc).

Wow that scramble is something else. It's weird though; it doesn't look great, but it gives some super good solutions.
