I found/genned/used these algs:
B' U2 r' U r U2 B
F R2 U R U' R2 F'
R U2 F R F' U2 R'
F D U R' U' R D' F'
U B R' U' R U l U' l'

Hey guys, a while ago I asked the community what they thought the best OLL case for ZBLL was and top 3 (before the poll was taken down) were U, L, and in first was T. So, I genned to a depth 11 the connected pair to always force a T ZBLL.
P.S I didn't include AUF's just saying that now rather than later.

I generatad more algs for this case
Setup: F U R U2 R' U R U R' U R U2 R' U R U R' F'
And although the standard which is the inverse of that setup is good and the #1 on algdb I don't like it so I generated some more algs and these are the best I have currently:

F R U' R' U' R U2 R' U' R U' R' U' R U2 R' U' F'
F U2 R U' R' U2 R2 U2 R2 U' R2 U' R' U' R' F'
F R U R U R2 U R2 U2 R2 U2 R U R' U2 F'
F R2 U2 R2 U' R2 U' R' U' R' U2 R U' R' U2 F'
F U R U2 R' U R U R' U R U2 R' U R U R' F'
U R2 L' U R U' R' L U R U R2 U' R2 U2 R U' R'
R U R2 U' R U R2 U2 R2 U2 R U2 D' R U R' D R

If anyone has an alg they think is awesome but is not on this let please let me know.

I've seen something like (y2) F U2 R2 U2 R2 U' S R2 S' U' R2 F' before, which is cool to execute but not exactly fast due to all the wrist turning and overworking. I personally use the first alg in your list.

 

[GenTheSnail]

I use the first alg on your list as well. I think it's a reasonable alg ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ so I'm content with it.

 

[N's-cvt]

Hey guys check out this alg I genned and got a sub 2 with it last night. Case is ZBLL Pi 17
R' U' R U R2 F' R U R U' R' F U' R U R' U R
I think it's a fun and fast alg.

someone please gen some good n perms they are why I wanna switch method

Does someone use a better alg than this one? - ZBLL H 28

Does anyone here have fast algorithms for OLL (specifically L, U, and T cases) which permute edges?

Assume edges are all correctly oriented and I would like to keep them that way.

I am trying to come up with an algorithm set that allows me to phase edges while solving OLL, and it is surprisingly hard to find the above algorithms.

Thanks in advance!

Permuting all of the LL edges or just phasing them (permitting two edges only)? I mean why would you permute the edges tho? COLL seems better.

Just phasing them so that they are either solved or have parity.

To lessen my possible PLL cases. Yes, I am aware that unphased PLL algs are generally faster (e.g., U perm vs. Z perm). This is simply for convenience for a beginner like myself.

Basically for each OLL case with correctly oriented edges, I have 3 algs. One which permutes edges clockwise while solving OLL, one which permutes CCW, and one which preserves edges (i.e., OCLL).

T (oriented corners on right):
F/B: r U R' U' r' F R F'
F/L: R U2 R' U2 R' F R U R U' R' F' or (U2) F U R U2 R' U R U R' F'
F/R: (U') D R' U' R U D' R U' R U R U' R2 or (U') L' U R' U' L R U2 R' U' R

U (oriented corners in front):
F/B: R2 D' R U2 R' D R U2 R
F/L: R2 D' r U2 r' D R U2 R or R' U2 R F U' R' U' R U F'
F/R: (U2) R2 D r' U2 r D' R' U2 R' or (U') F U' R' U R U F' R' U2 R

L (LL colour facing you on FUR corner):
F/B: F' r U R' U' r' F R or R2 D R' U R D' R' U' R'
F/L: (U') r U2 R2 F R F' R U2 r'
F/R: (U') F R U' R' U' R U2 R' U' F'

Seems kind of pointless though, if you ask me.

It’s definitely better to just learn PLL. Being lazy doesn’t help anyone.

Could any one provide me a decent R Perm ?

can someone generate an alg that simply swaps two opposite edges?

 

[xyzzy]

Does someone use a better alg than this one? - ZBLL H 28
U x' U' R U' R' U R' F2 R U' R U R' U x

The alg I actually use is just double Niklas (used to be faster than the xRUF algs for me), but this one seems fine too:
R U2 l' U R' U' R U2 r B r' U x'

Haven't drilled or done timing comparisons yet though, and maybe it's better to execute it without the rotation.

can someone generate an alg that simply swaps two opposite edges?

That's impossible. Unless you mean swapping two opposite edges on the last layer, while ignoring corners, in which case, in approximate order of speed (fastest to slowest):
T perm (R U R' U' R' F R2 U' R' U' R U R' F')
r U' r U2 R' F R U2 r2 F
Z perm (there're a million of them; pick whichever)
R U' R2 D' r U2 r' D R2 U R'

I have found a full VLS (Valk Last Slot) algorithm set (algdb.net) but I can’t find a full HLS (Hessler Last Slot) set. Does anyone have one?

No one has a full set because everyone lost interest in it after some time and the algs weren't good (This is what I've heard). However, if you want to learn some algs apart from SV, then here you go.
these are the algs genned by Jabari for the no edges oriented cases (0 for short)
