what permutations do YOU use for 2x2?

PBL kills me on 2x2x2. I'm terrible at every single case. But I've found that both T perm and J perm are worse for me on 2x2x2 than A perm, so I actually use A perm for swapping two adjacent corners. Arnaud suggested it to me first, and I've done it ever since.

It takes me less than 2 seconds to do a T perm on a 3x3x3, but close to 4 seconds to do a T perm on a 2x2x2. :(
 
The number of centers and edges increase in a 4x4x4 or bigger but never the corner. We often forget that this is the heart. No human can fully control the fewest move a 2x2x2 on each scramble, its thinking.

Resource for looking back at the beginning of the resurgence of the cube :) Return of rubik's puzzle popularity. The cube is'nt musical (method & math) partition exchange only but it's has competitive.
