Please feel free to critique! 2x2x2 was meh, I didn’t foresee that I would make an expansion pair during first step, but hey, I’ll take it. 4 bad edges, normal. CFOP like F2L. Standard COLL and EPLL.

2x2 : If you had used no inspection, you could have done a 6 move 2x2 : R' L2 u' B2 U b'
223 : using an r' instead of an L' at the end would have saved a cube rotation.
EO : Would have done z' x' F' U2 R' L F R L' instead so that you would have your cross edge in and no rotation before F2L
F2L : Great!
COLL : Don't know COLL so dunno
EPLL : MU U perm is faster

Thanks!
2x2x2 The problem is, I really need to expand my thinking time during inspection, I wouldn’t have found that just by looking quickly around. I’m going to work on checking as many 2x2x2s as possible before starting.

2x2x3 - yeah, I realise now :)

EO - confusion? It doesn’t solve EO, and also cross edge is bad in terms of efficiency?

F2L - yay, a bright spot in my solve :p

COLL - N/A

EPLL - I think they’re similar speeds. Last I checked, Feliks uses RU.

EO is done closer to ZZ style in my example. you do the EO from the front, like your colours are the F U and D colours. Most people use MU and Feliks uses slightly outdated algs.

I’m still confused...Example solve doesn’t work...
As for the MU U Perms - I might actually switch, since
A. Similar speed everyone says
B. Maybe faster
C. Looks flashier to non-cubers
D. M moves are gud, I like them, why my Z and H Perms are M U

You've said that M moves hurt your hand, so they might not be the best choice for you

Nonono, they’re OK, I was just talking about the uncomfortable stretch to do a U after M (I can’t move my hand, or it’ll be moving back down again to do the M2) which is why I use U’ after M2 in an H Perm instead of a U.
