WW(Whittaker-Winter) is an experimental 3x3 method that is a variation of the zb method. that orients the corners when inserting the last f2l pair (Winter variation). Then solves edge orientation and pll in one step. Orienting the corners first rather than orienting edges(like in zb) has the advantage of using far less algorithms(using only 90 total compared to zb's 300). It is unknown if and very doudtful if it has ever been used before.

To solve using WW first solve cross and 3 f2l slots like in fridrich(or any way one wishes). Next use the Winter variation to insert the last f2l pair and orient last layer corners. Finnaly solve eoll and pll in one algorithm.

Pros Uses a fairly large amount of algorithms(21 of which are pll algs). Should be just as fast(or faster since less time remebering alot of algs) as zb using much less algorithms. Cons It is unknown if the downfall of this method is having bad algorithms,or bad look ahead/ reconization.Never been used.
