The Great RUr Example Solve Game

With this new game, I invite to solve RUr scrambles.
So, the left block is already solve (Roux first block), but also the corner permutation.
I believe it offers interesting possibilities of optimization as you can try to force a corner orientation skip, or a simple Sune.

Only the scramble has to be <R, U, r>, not your solution.
New tricks are welcome and strongly encouraged!

To begin, here are 3 "free" examples.

r' U R2 U' R' U2 R' r' U2 r U R r' U2 R2 U2 R U' R' U' R r2 U' R2 r
U' R' U r U' M2' // 6 - EO Stripe
U' R' U R U' R U' R2 // 8/14 - F2L
R U R' U R U2' R' U'
L' U' L U' L' U2 L // 15/29 - 2GLL


R' U2 r U r2 U R' r' U2 r' U R2 U2 R2 U' R' U' R2 r' U R2 U R' U' R
R2 M' U M' // Orient DR
R2 U R U' r // 9 - RB Square
U2 M R U2 R' U r U2 r' // 9/18 - Right block + corners
U' M U' M U M U2 M' // 8/26 - LSE


r U' r' U' r2 U' r R U R' r U R U R U' r2 R U' r R U R' U r2
(R2 S R2 S' r) (S R2 S' r2) // 9 - Right block
l U L' U L U2 l' // 7/16 - Corners
U M' U M' U' M2' U' M U2 M' U // 11/27 - L6E


NEXT : U r2 U' R' U R U R' U R U' r' U' r2 R U R' U2 r' U2 R U R2 U2 r2
 
NEXT : U' R U R' U' R2 U R2 r U2 r' U2 r R U r' U r' R2 U r' R2 U R U'

R2//DR Triplet
R' U' R U' R' U2 R U2 R'//CO+BR+FR
U R2 U2 R2 U R2 U2 R2//RB
M U' M' U M U M' U' M2 U' M U2 M' U'//LSE


Could cancel a move, so 31 STM. This uses a method I thought of a while back (CPFB, then the steps continue as normal), which, while impractical for speedsolving, gives some decently low movecounts. Algs are here.

NEXT: r' R' U' R2 U' r' U R2 U' r' R' U' R' U R2 r' U' R2 r2 U R' U2 r U r
 
I don't know how to fix @PapaSmurf 's solution.

U R r' U r U2 r2 U R2 U' r2 U' r2 U' R' U2 r U' R' U2 R2 r2 U2 R' r

S R' S' // EO
R U R' // Square
M2' U M2' U R' U2 R // SB
L U2 L' U' L U' L' // Corners
(M2' U)3 // LSE


r2 R' U2 r U r2 U2 r R U' R U R' U R2 U' R U2 R2 U' r' U r2 U R'

U' R r U' R F' U' F R' f R' f' // 12 - SB
U2 R' U r U2' R2' F R F' r // 10/22 - CMLL
U M' U M U2 M U M2 U2 M' U' // 11/33 - LSE


NEXT : U2 r' U2 R2 U R' U' R2 r' U R2 r U' R' U' R U2 R U' r' U' R2 U r U'

Nice one!! Thanks
I don't want to make it embarrassing but… did you notice U2 solves the CO and build a square?
U2 r' // CO+CP+square
There is a 14 STM solution. Would you like to try again?

R U r2 R' U' R2 U2 r2 U R2 U2 R2 r2 U2 R U r' R' U2 r R U2 R' r' U2

M // EO
R2 U2 R' U2 R // Square
U' M2' U2 R U' R' // dR
U' R' U' R U' r' U2 R M U2 // Solved

22 STM

NEXT : U' R2 U2 r R2 U' r R2 U' r R2 U' r2 U R' r U' R U2 r2 R U2 r' U r

Yeah I did

M U2 R' M' U' M' U2 M2 U//9 to 5e
9 to 5e. I give up at this point
U' R2 U2 r R2 U' r R2 U' r R2 U' r2 U R' r U' R U2 r2 R U2 r' U r
U' R2 U' M2 U2 R' U R2 U R' //Square+ setup a pair
M' U2 R U' R' //RB
U' F R' F R2 U' R' U' R U R' F2 //CMLL(from an algsheet)
M U2 M U M' U M U M //LSE feat. Pyjam style movecount


WTF was that LSE???

Next: r U r' U2 R r2 U2 R U' r R' U r2 U' R2 r U' R2 r U' R2 r U2 R2 U'

Scramble: U2 r' R' U2 R r U2 R' r' U R U2 r2 R2 U2 R2 U r2 U2 R2 U' R' r2 U R
And my solutions was:
U2 // CO+CP+square
R2 U M2' U' r // dR
U2 M U M2' U' u2 M' u2 // LSE


r U r' U2 R r2 U2 R U' r R' U r2 U' R2 r U' R2 r U' R2 r U2 R2 U'

Roux:
U' R r U r U' r2 U' R' U r U' r' // SB
U r' U2 R U R' U r // CMLL+EO
U M2' U M2' U' // LSE

26 STM

LEOR:
R' U2 M' U' r R U' M2 // EO Stripe (dl block)
U R2 U R U R2 U2 R' U' R // F2L
y2 R' U2' R2 U R2' U R2 U2' R' // COLL

27 STM

NEXT : U R2 r2 U r U2 r2 R2 U' R U' R U2 r2 U r2 U R2 U r U2 r' R2 U r
