So basically its like for a Lin method I am planning to use

1. Cube Shape
2. FB+SB
3. BD edge + CP
4. L5E (PLL+1 but also if you have parity)

However, I dont know the last step name, algs, nor how many algs are there, so help me guys.

u only really need like 6 algs im pretty sure

also finally someone that doesnt use the vandenbergh method
 
is it that popular?
and theres no way theres only 6 algs, especially with parity
u could learn more than 6, but that is the least necessary to solve it.

Solved Corners: (1,0) / (0,3) / (3,0) / (-1,-1) / (-2,1) / (0,-3) / (-1,0)

Diagonal swap: (1,0) / (-4,-3) / (-3,0) / (-3,-3) / (-3,0) / (-2,-3) /

Adjacent swap L: (1,0) / (3,0) / (3,-3) / (-1,2) / (1,-2) / (3,0) /

Adjacent swap R: (1,0) / (2,-1) / (0,-3) / (3,0) / (-3,0) / (-2,4) /

Adjacent swap F: (0,-1) / (4,-2) / (-3,0) / (0,3) / (0,-3) / (-1,2) /

Adjacent swap B: (4,-3) / (-3,0) / (-1,2) / (1,-2) / (-3,3) / (-3,0) /
 
his step is called PLL + 1 and has 72 algorithms excluding the 21 PLL algorithms. It is much faster than CP + DF / EPLL but has many more algorithms so there is a tradeoff. It is important to note that PLL + 1 only works if you use CSP because parity is not accounted for in any of the algorithms. PLL + 1 is implemented by most top Lin solvers.

Nobody really understood what they meant lol.

They are doing CPDB to get left with L5E/Parity L5E (which are terrible alg wise).

6 CPDB cases. 4 EPLL, 5 pEPLL, 12 L5E, 12 pL5E.
39 algs total.
