No.

why not?

why not?

Too many steps, like why wouldn't you solve just strictly solve the redges? it leads to an unnecessary extra step.

I guess youre right, but adding steps doesnt make it less efficient as the smaller steps themselves are more efficient individually

 

[PetraPine]

you could do
Psuedo FB
CLL/WCLL
Normal SB + EO
Last 2 L R edges (l2lr?)
(rotate)
L8E+E slice(which is actually pretty nice in columns)

I really wouldn't say intuitive L8EP is efficient.

I really wouldn't say intuitive L8EP is efficient.

i mean, it is tho also did i say it had to be intuitive?
also dude the edges are already oriented so yes it is.

if the Pseudo FB pieces aren't oriented, you wouldn't get L8EP in the end.

L8EP would be like so many algs, just learn 1LLL instead lel also, how?

 

[PetraPine]

they are
i said they would be
i thought thats what phsuedo meant
for example
like Orange face with only red and orange edges oriented

You're making it seem like L8EP seems brilliant.

 

[PetraPine]

because L R are oriented edges and you do EO, L8E is also oriented

??????? what?
i was explaining what i meant there,
also i never said it was BrIlIANTANTT
i was explaining how the step worked.

 

[PetraPine]

lol please actually reply instead of doing eyes up

As someone who's used PCMS more than most, I can say for sure that L8E or even L8E with EO done beforehand, isn't a great step. The fastest method to solve L8E is probably to reduce it to Roux LSE, and then you're just doing a slow hybrid of PCMS and Roux, if I understand your steps correctly

firstly, L8EP on the side would have terrible ergonomics

i never said you couldnt reduce it to that

read my post i say rotate first twice

Even what you're talking about is PCMS L8E which is UR UL UF UB DF DB DR DL and this is LSE + FR and BR, PCMS' L8E is more ergonomic.

read my post i say rotate first twice

rotating would actually make it worse xd

Psuedo FB
CLL/WCLL
Normal SB + EO
do OREO
Last 2 L R edges (l2lr?)
solve last two edges with final edge alg
(ROTATE)
L8E+E slice(which is actually pretty nice in columns) just solve l8e however and use M2 U2 before rotation or R2 U2 after to solve edges
(clarifications)
also it would be fairly efficient L8E because before the rotation you would only have to do L6E EO instead of L8E EO

It would just be Waterman.

 

[PetraPine]

It would just be Waterman.

what? lol how
you do all the previous steps and than solve L8E, one way is to Reduce to L6E and solve that
