Last second slice find!
(R U' R) // EO (3)
(U') // 4e4c (4)
U2 D2 F B D2 F D // 11 4a1 6e
[(F') L2 F R2 L2 U2 B' // HTR with cool extension (18)
U2 R2 D2] // S (21)
[]=(B') L2 F' B2 R2 L2 D2 F' R2 D2 L2 // +1/22

Backup 23 (found at 45 mins):
(R U' R)
B // 6e4c (4)
F2 D F R2 L2 F' D2 F' // 12 2c3 2e
L2 [U L2 U' L2 U] // HTR (18)
R2 F2 R2 B2 // E (22)
[]=D F2 U D2 B2 D // +1/23

Similar idea (found this one after the attempt):

(R U' R)
B // 6e4c (4)
F2 D F R2 L2 B' L2 B // 12 2c3 2e
L2 U' F2 U' D2 B2 U' B2 // M (20)
+4/24

Alright what did Mallard find
F B2 L (R')         // eolr               (4/4)
D2 B'               // rzpud-eolr         (2/6)
(D2 F2 U B)         // drud-eolr [2c3 2e] (4/10)
(R2 U B2 U' B2 D')  // htr-drud           (6/16)
D2 R2 U2            // frud               (3/19)
R2                  // fin                (1/20)

Idrc about missing this I didn't even have this rzp

Edit: Missed (R2 F D' B), (R') somehow (which gives 21)

I love hackery!
Not a particularly good result but still a cool find
Had this dr early on, mostly the reason I was able to find something like this
(F R D B) // EO (4)
(U L2 U L F2 L2 U) // 11 4c3 0e through 4e3c
[L F2 D2 L' D2 L2 F2 L // HTR (19)
F2 R2]// E (21)
Okay so I thought this was +4 at first but theres actually a sneaky way to get +3
[]=E, E' // +3/24
The beauty of 0e DRs!

Backup:
(R') R U B' R // EO (5)
(B2 R2 D F2 B2 R2 D' B') // 13 4a1 4e
F B D2 F B' U // HTR (19)
F2 R2 F2 D2 R2 // E (24)
+2 fahhhh

(R' U D' F) // EO (4)
Switched here cuz didn't have many four movers on this scramble
U' R2 F2 L U2 L' U' // 11 2c3 4e
B2 L' F2 B2 D2 L B2 L // HTR (19)
F2 U2 R2 B2 // Slice (23)
+1/24 meh

Something funny I got from Mallard off of this dr:
(F2 L) B2 R2 D2 L' B2 U2 R // HTR (19)
B2 // S (20)

Okay here's a 19 Mallard found on one of the 4 movers, except I'll make it make sense:
(U D) // premove abuse (2)
U2 D' R B // EO
D R' L D // 10 4a2 4e
[L F2 L2 U2 L'] // HTR (15)
U D' B2 R2 U D' // M (18)
[]= R2 L' B2 R2 U2 L // +1/19

Final: U2 D' R B D R' L D R2 L' B2 R2 U2 L' U D' B2 R2 D2 (19)

Backup:
R B D B L
F', (D2 B' R2 L2 F D2 F) // 13 4b2 2e
B2 D2 B2 D' F2 U' // HTR (19)
F2 L2 B2 U2 R2 // Slice 24
+2 I think, I tried forcing some double slice stuff here, seeing as this can just be rewritten as:
R B D B L
F B2 D2 B2 D' F2 U // 12 4a1 2e

I had no sub 11 drs on this scram, my 11 movers (other than the one submitted) were 11+2c4 and 11+4c3

Tied pb3!
13+7 I am literally Kalindu
F' L' F D' R // EO (5)
U' D // 2e3c (7)
(B2 L2 B' U' B U) // 13 4a1 4e
(R2 U2 L2 B) // HTR (17)
(R2 U2 L2) // 20 lmao

This was my dr originally, but once I realized it was 4a1 I figured it might be 4a1 on the other side of the rzp as well:
F' L' F D' R' // EO (5)
U' D // 2e3c (7)
F B2 D' B' D // 12 4a1 4e

Backup 23:
R' U' L' F' D // EO (5)
L // 2e3c (6)
(F' D2 R F R') // 11 4b2 2e
U2 R2 U2 F2 R2 F D2 B' // HTR (19)
L2 D2 F2 // S (22)
+1/23

(F U) R' L U // EO+4e4c (5)
(F B' U2 R2 L2 F L) // 12 2c3 2e

Had some other drs but they were pretty mid

So mid
L B' F2 R' F' // EO+4e4c (5)
U' D2 F2 U B2 L // 11 4a1 2e
D2 B2 U' (U2 B2 U' R2 L2 D') // HTR (20)
(R' L D2 R' L') // 25
The dr looked blocky but it seems as though +14 was the best I could get
+14 is also the best I can get from Mallard. Insane.

Next best thing I had was this:
B2 L' F D' R // EO+4e4c (5)
(D2 B2 D2 R2 F2 U' F') // 12 4b2 2e
Optimal off of this DR seems to be 25 as well

Also had this
L B' L U F
D L U' B2 U' F2 U L // 13 4a1 4e

Edit: missed an 8 move dr on the 3 mover, I think I had the rzp but ignored it cuz I was tryna force 4e4c, not 6e4c
oh well

PB!!!!!!!!!! (previous pb was 19)
Holy crap everything was so stressful after finding the 6 mover
Had the slice skeleton in maybe 30 mins? Found the 18 at about 15 mins left
also U D for EO is kinda crazy
I'm sure there was some stupid 16 or 17 of of this

Edit: There was a 17 off of the 6 mover, nice find Baiqiang! I didn't think to reduce to 0c0 2e... but not mad at all since it seemed hard to find.

U' D // EO+4e4c (2)
(L' U2 R' B') // 6 4b2 4e?????
(R^' D2 L') // 0c0 4e
(F2 R' F2 B2 L^') // HTR (14)
(U2 D2 L2 D2 B2) // M (19)
^=w for +0/19 but wait...
[U' D B2 D2 L2 U2 D2] Lw F2 B2 R F2 L D2 Rw B R U2 L
[]=D2 B2 U2 L2 U' D' // -1/18!

So after the attempt I found out that setting up to the 2 qt is actually pretty easy, found these off of it:
U D' // EO+4e4c (2)
(L' U2 R' B') // 6 4b2 4e
(U2 B2 D2 R B2 U2 R') // HTR (13)
(F2 U2 F2) // Slice in 16?????
Thank god its +2, otherwise I would've been really pissed for missing that

U' D // EO+4e4c (2)
(L' U2 R' B') // 6 4b2 4e
(U2 B2 U2 R U2 B2 R) // HTR (13)
(U2 B2 U2 R2) // M (17)
Also +2

Okay let's see what Mallard finds on this juicer...
Okay the best it finds for me is 18, so I don't think I missed anything too obvious. We'll see, but regardless I'm super happy to get this result!!!

R L' U' R' B' // EO+square (5)
D' // 2e2c (6)
(R U' B2 U' L2 D') // 12 4b2 2e 8 var
(L2 B2 U2 R D2 [L) // HTR (18)
(U2 B2 D2 B2]) // Slice (22)
[]=(R B2 D2 F2 D2 R' L) // +2/24 :(

Backup 25:
(F' R2 D' F) // EO (4)
(R L' U) // 2e3c (7)
U' R2 L' U R2 U // 13 4b2 2e with cool trigger
B2 U2 L' F2 L // HTR (18)
F2 L2 U D' R2 B2 R2 U D' // 9-2/25

Other:

R2 F2 L' U B' // EO+4e4c (5)
U2 R' U2 R2 B2 R2 D // 12 4c3 2e 8 var

(U R2 F)
R D L' F2 D' L' F2 L U2 L // 13 2c3 4e 8 var

Oh my god I had so many 24s on this scram
Okay 22 first:

(R D L U F) // EO (5)
(U2 R' B2 D L) // 10 2c4 4e
(U) // 4c3 (yes, this is how I found it)
L2 D' // 4b2 2e
(F2 U' L2 U) // HTR (17)
(B2 R2 U2 F2 L2) // E
+0/22

Okay here come the 24s
R L U F // EO (4)
D // 2e4c (5)
(B2 L B2 R' U F2 U') // 12 2c3 2e
(F2 R2 U2 R' F2 R F2 R') // HTR (20)
(U D' B2 U D') // 5-1/24

F L D' F // EO (4)
R' // 2e2c (5)
(U2 R2 L' U L2 D' L) // 12 2c3 4e
(D' R2 B2 U' R2 L2 B2 D) // HTR with cool extension (20)
(B2 L2 B2) // Slice (23)
+1/24

F (R L U' B) // EO+8e7c (5)
U (L' B2 L2 D') // 10 2c4 4e 2 var
(B2 R U2 B2 L' D2 L D2 L) // HTR (19)

+1/24

U' (L' B2 L2 D') // 10 2c4 4e 2 var
(B2 R U' D' R2 U' D L' D2 R F2 R) // Goofy HTR

(R2 L' U' L2 U) // 11 4a1 2e
(L F2 R' U2 D2 L') // HTR (17)

+2/24

(D2 R' D2 U R U) // 11 2c5 2e
(L D2 R F2 D2 L F2 L' U2 R') // HTR (21)
(B2 L2 B2) // 24

Honorable mention:
F (U' R2 L B) // EO+4e4c (5)
L2 F2 R L' D R L // dr with cool trigger, 12 4b5 2e lmao

No 18 for me :( but I do get 22.33 pb mo3!

D F' B2 U' // EO (4)
(F' R) // 2e3c (6)
B' D2 F2 R B' R' // 12 4b2 2e
U2 F R2 F' // HTR (16)
D2 R2 F2 R2 D2 R2 D2 // 23

nah thats a little boring...

U2 F R2 F // HTR (16)
R' L D2 R' L' F2 D2 // 23 okay thats a little more like it

Edit: There's a pretty simple way to slice this down to a 21 that I didn't find:
U2 F' B2 L2 F' // HTR (17)
R' L' U2 B2 R L' // 6-2/21
Oh well... next time then

(L2 F L' D B) // EO+2e2c (5)
D R D2 L' D // 10 4b2 4e
L U2 D2 R' U2 D2 L D2 L^' D2 $ // Slice (20)
Best I could find was +2, absurd on 4q but makes sense cuz of U2 D2 spam:
^=w
$=M
+2/22

Unfortunately missed the 20 off of this dr: L B2 L B2 U2 F2 L D2 L' U2

A much more free, simple 22 that I had early on in the attempt:

(L2 F' L' D B') // EO+2e3c wow! (5)
(F2 R D' R' D') // 10 4b2 4e
(U2 R B2 D2 L') // HTR (15)
(U2 F2 D2 L2 F2 D2 L2) // 22
I actually thought that this was a 23 when I wrote it down cuz I forgot that (D U2 D2) is two moves
Another interesting +12:
(U2 L' D2 F2 L2 F2 D2 L') // HTR (18)
(D2 L2 B2 U2) // 22

Backup 23:

B' L R2 U R // EO+4e4c (5)
(L2 B' U2 F' B D) // 11 4b2 4e
L2 B L2 B' // HTR (15)
L2 D2 F2 D2 F2 R2 D2 L2 // 23

Weird dr find:
(D' B' L' F) // EO (4)
U2 B2 U // 2e4c
(R D' R2 D) // 11 4b2 2e

Also holy blocky eo:
D L B' D R

Premade square is wild, I wonder what Doug Li would get on this

This solution is almost exactly like the 19 from last season's W9A1, except the dr is 3 moves longer:
Reduction to 2e4c
4a1 2e
6 move htr
3 move 3 gen finish

13+9 holy Kalindu

D' (D2 L B U') // EO (5)
(R) // 2e4c (6)
(F2 R2 F' B2 R F2 R) // 13 4a1 2e
(F D2 B U2 D2 F) // HTR (19)
(L2 D2 F2) // 22 lol

There's also this 22 to slice:
D (D2 L B U') // EO (5)
(R') // 2e4c (6)
L2 F2 B' L' B2 L' // 12 4a1 4e
B2 L2 D2 R2 F // HTR (17)
U2 B2 R2 D2 L2

And this:
D (D2 L B U') // EO (5)
(R) // 2e4c (6)
L2 F2 B' R L2 D2 R // ext to 13 4a1 4e
L2 F // HTR (15)
U2 L2 U2 L2 U2 B2 L2

Backups:
(R2 B L' F') // EO+222???
R2 D // 2e2c
R2 U' R U2 L' U' // 12 2c3 4e
(B2 U2 R F2 R' U2 R) // HTR (19)
(B2 R2 F2 R2 D2) // 24

(B L' F) // EO (3)
R2 D // 2e2c
R2 U' R U2 L' U' // 11 2c3 4e (blocky)
B2 L (D2 L B2 L') // HTR (17)
(U2 B2) // 2e2e (19)

Also had this 9 mover:
D' (L B U') // EO (5)
(R) // 2e3c
F' L B L // 9 2c4 4e
Didn't find anything that good off of this

What a funny 23
(U' B' R' U2 F) // EO (5)
(L' D) // 4e0c
R L D' R2 L2 U' // 13 4b2 4e

but...

Flip dr:

(U' B' R' U2 F) // EO (5)
R L (L' D R' B2 U2 L) // 13 0c4 ew
rewrite dr for better case:

(U' B' R' U2 F) // EO (5)
R L (L' D B2 L2 D2 R U2 B2 R) // 16 0c0 4e :skull:
(D F2 B2 U) // HTR (20)
(R' L' D2 R L) // Slice (5-4/21)
htr rewrite:
(D B2 U' D R2 D) // +2/23

Didnt have time to check the 4 movers on U/D :/
+14 on 4c3 0e is kinda crazy icl
(L' B2 U) // EO (3)
R' F' B // 4e4c
U2 L U2 R' B' // 11 4c3 0e
R' U2 F2 R (F2 U2 L') // HTR (18)
B2 L2 U' D L2 U' D' // 25 erm okay

This is the most chaotic 23 I've ever gotten
F' L B // EO (3)
(R' L2 U B2 D2 B2 D2 L') // 11 2c4 0e
B' D' F U2 F' D B' // dr-breaking trigger to htr (7-2/16)
U2 L2 U' D // 2e2e (20)

Skel:
F' L D' F U2 F' D B' U2 L2 U' D [L D2 B2] D2 B2 U' R L2
[]=R2 L' U2 F2 R2 L2 // +3/23 noice, tons of +4s

Also had the obvious 9 mover:
F' L B
(R' D2 F2 D' F2 L) // 9 4c4 4e
Best I could find was this 25 to slice:
B2 U (L2 U B2 U) B2 L2 F2 B2 U // HTR (11-2/18)
F2 U2 F2 L2 F2 L2 F2

Not bad though, best I could get out of Mallard was this +15:
(. . . L') // 9 4c4 4e
(U L2 F2 D L2 D2 F2 D' B2 U')
(L2 F2 R2 B2 L2)

Free 23 after rzp imo, others will prob find this
Also I believe this is my first time solving 2c4 6e
D2 R' B // EO (3)

Found after:

First time solving 8e7c!

edit: BRO THIS DR GIVES THE MOST FREE 21 WITH 2Q AND I DIDNT FIND IT BROOOO
I'm actually so pissed I didn't find the continuation, its linear and is just two move setup to 4b2 4e trigger

Here's a 25 to slice off of a different eo:
(F' D B2 R B) // EO+4e4c (5)
(F2 R2 D2 R2 D B2 L) // 12 4b2 4e
U2 F2 U' L2 B2 U' // HTR (18)

Found with 2 mins left phew
L2 U' F U // EO (4)

(F2 D2 F2 R2 B' D2 F') // HTR (19)

Didn't write down (L) R' F2 L rip

*=U2 D2 F2 U2 D2 B2 // 6-1/23
Also this
(B U2 R2 F') // HTR (17)
(U2) // 4x lol (18)
Best I could find off this was 23:
[]=U2 D2 B2 U2 L2 U2 D2 L // +5/23

Also had 23 to slice off of the 8 move dr:
R' F' B' R // EO (4)
F2 U2 D' B' // 8 4c3 2e
U2 F2 D (D2 F2 U F2 R2 U) // HTR (17)
R2 U2 B2 R2 B2 L2

Funny dr I had early on:
(R2 F D B' L) // EO (5)
(F B) // 2e4c
(D2 F' U2 F) // 11 4a1 0e 4 var

Edit: forgot to switch for jzp (gave 18 rip)

Found at around 50 mins in

Pretty straightforward solution.

After eo, I also had (F2 D' F' U F2 D' F') // Blocky 11 2c3 2e but I didn't find the +12....

I'm too tired to perform this event properly+bad scram
Solved 8c8e for the first time lesgooo
(F' U) D' B D' // EO+8c8e (5)
U2 L2 B L2 F' L' R' // 12 4a2 2e
B' (R2 B2 D2 L2 D2 L2 F') // HTR (20)
(U D L2 U D' R2) // 26

I'm submitting this because its cool and weird

Another 26:

(F' U) D' B D' // EO+8c8e (5)
U2 L2 B L2 F L' R'// 12 4a2 2e
B (R2 B2 D2 R2 D2 R2 F') // HTR (20)
(U2 F2 L2 U2 R2 U2) // 26

I messed up writing down the eos like 3 times so time managment wasn't the best
27 I found & typed out within the hour:
(L) U' R // EO (3)
(U' B) // 4c4e (5)
D' U2 L2 U2 B2 U' F' // 11 (ext to 12) 4b2 2e
(L2 U2 L2 R2 U' R2 U) // HTR (19)
(B2 D2 B2 U2 B2 R2 B2 R2) // 27

(After the attempt) When I started checking some eo's that I wrote down but didn't check, I immediately found this (which I'm submitting as unlimited)
D B (L U' B) // EO+4c4e
R2 D R2 U' R2 U2 R' // 12 4b2 6e 4 var
U2 $ F2 D^' R2 U // HTR (17)

+2/25 broooooo lwk pmo
Opt off of DR is 23 but it was 4q to 5 move finish so idrc

Here's another 23 to slice (which also gives +2):
(F2 D2 L') F2 U2 B2 L' // HTR
F' B' D2 F' B D2

Other:

U B2 D B
L' D R L2 U' L2 U // 11 4c3 4e 2 var

U2 B2 D B
L (L2 D L2 U' L2 D R) // 12 something

L U' R F D // 4c4e

Screwed up time management, panic solution but I'll take it

D F' D // EO (3)
(B' U2 F R2 U2 B2 U2 R') // 11 2c3 4e 8 var
(F U2 D2 $ R2 B' D2 B') // HTR (18)
(U2 D2 $ F2 R L D2 L' R') // 26

Alt fin.: (...B) // HTR, (R L D2 R' L U2 D2 R2)

I just realized that inserting an E2 at the dollar signs gets rid of like 5 moves and gives 5e, I wonder if its beneficial as an insertion

Also had this, it prob gives something better that I couldn't find:

L2 F' R'
(U F U) // 3c2e
F' U' F' U // 10 4c4 4e

And this: U2 F' U2 R'
D' B L2 R2 D R2 D // 11 4c3 6e 2 var

Heres a DR I wrote down and didn't check, but definitely should've...

(U2 R' F B R) // EO+2e2c (5)
(U2 B' U' B U2 F' U') // 12 4a2 2e
(F) F2 U2 B // HTR (16)

It's +2 so like whatever ig

Okay lets see what I find post-attempt
Idk I'll look tmrw if I care enough by then lol

6/6/4

D2 B2 U2 F U' // 10 2c4 4e
(B U2 B' L2 F U2 F) // HTR (17)
(D2 L2 U2 B2 D2 L2) // 23

Eh there was prob a good rzp off of the 2 mover that I didn't check

Such a juiced scram,
The amount of good stuff that wasn't sub 24 that I had on this scram was lowkey insane, so I decided to try and find a sub-24 before submitting (which is why I'm doing unlimited)

U2 F' // EO (2)
(L U) // 4c4e (4)
L' U2 L U // erm 8 4b5 2e bruh
(L') L' U2 L' (F2 L' D2 L') // HTR (16)
(B2 U D' F2 L2 U D') // 23

Here were some of my 24s:

R U R' F' // EO+4c2e (4)
[U' B2 D'] R' D2 R // 10 4a1 2e
(L2 D' F2 B2 U L2 U') // HTR (17)
(B F R2 F' B) // Slice (22)
[]=D U2 L2 U D2
+2/24 ME NO LIKE DIS EVENTTTTT

R F L2 U // EO (4)
F // 3c2e (5)
R' D2 R F R' F' // 11 4b2 6e (blocky)
(R^2 B2 R^' $ B2 L^') // HTR (16)
(F2 L2 U2 B2 U2 B2 U2) // Slice (23)
$=M2
^=w
+1/24 hmmmmm

L' U' L F // EO+2c2e (4)
L2 D2 L [U' L2 D] L // 11 4a1 6e
({D'} L2 R2 U' R2 U^' R2 U2 $ L2 F2) // 2e2e (21)
[]=U D2 R2 D' U2 // Different 2e2e to reduce to LS (23)
{}=Dw2 D'
$=(E)

I lied its +2/25

Here's a 25 that I actually wrote down within the hour but wasnt too satisfied with:
R U R' F' // EO+4c2e (4)
[U' B2 D'] R' D2 R // 10 4a1 2e
(L2 D' F2 B2 $ U L2 U) // HTR (17)
(B2 U2 B2) // 2e2e (20)
$=(B2 U2 R2 B2 U2 B2 R2 U2) // 20+(8-3)/25
Of course this was after I realized that (. . .U') // HTR (B' F R2 F' B') gives LS in 22 lol

I also had R F L2 U, F' L' F' R' F // 9 4a1 4e but its pretty bad for 4a1 4e imo

This scram looked so juiced I wonder if its like 16/17 optimal or something. Here's something Mallard found:
R' U2 R F       // eofb               (4/4)
D               // rzplr-eofb         (1/5)
R' F2 D'        // drlr-eofb [4c3 4e] (3/8)
L' (D2 L B2 L)  // htr-drlr           (5/13)
F2 D2 (U2)      // frud               (3/16)
F2 B2 R2        // fin                (3/19)

Bruh this was the 2nd eo I wrote down smh

I also missed U2 F, D R and U2 F, U L because I was really tired while doing the attempt and forgot to check for those obvious rzps and instead just trying to setup to the 3c4e trigger

This is the most satisfying 23 I've ever gotten
D L2 F D' // EO+4e4c (4)
(L2 B' D2 L2 B R') // 10 2c4 2e
(F) [B L2 B L2 B] // HTR (16)
(L2 U D B2 U' D') // Psuedo slice thingy with htr breaking trigger, not sure what to call it (22)
[]=B' F2 R2 F D2 F' // solved (23)

Also had another 10 2c4 2e:
D' F D2 L
R2 U' R2 U' R2 F
I dont think its better though

I also had this:
D' F D2 L
(F2 U R2 D2 R2 B) // 10 4c3 4e 4 var
Since its 4 var and blocky it probably has a sub 23 but I didn't have time to check it
Lets see what Mallard finds off of it...
The best it finds is +14 so looks like I didn't miss out on anything

Other:

D F L' B
R D (U2 R D L2 D) // 11 4c3 4e 2 var
Here's a funny +14 Mallard found off of this:
B2 L' (F2 L)           // eolr               (4/4)
(L' B)                 // rzplr-eoud         (2-2/4)
(F2 B')                // drlr-eoud [4b2 4e] (2-4/2)
(R F2 L' B2 L' D2 L')  // htr-drlr           (7/9)
D2 B2 U2               // frud               (3/12)
B2 R2                  // fin                (2/14)


D2 F L' (F' B U L2 U R2 U' R2 U) // 12 4a2 4e tons of vars

D' F D2 L
R2 U' R2 U D2 L2 B // 10 2c4 2e ext to 11

D F L2 D
B2 R2 B2 L' B L' F L // 12 2c4 2e with 4e3c trigger

Had this solution written down at about 35 or 40 mins in
(R' L2 U L') // EO (4)
(D) // 2c2e
U' F U2 B' U // noice trigger 10 2c3 4e
L2 B2 L2 B D2 B' U2 R2 B // HTR (19)
U2 B2 R2 U2 R2 // 24
This was the best I could find off of this dr, extensions that I found gave worse cases
Lets see what Mallard finds...
(F D2 L2 B D2 F)  // htr-drfb           (6/6)
R2 U2             // frud               (2/8)
F2 R2 F2 L2       // fin                (4/12)
bruhhhhhhh, I had (B) which is just (F) except for slice, but didnt realize it could be set up to 4b2 2e trigger in 2 moves somehow lol
Looks like I missed out on a pretty findable 22 :/

This was the first dr I found:
F' D2 B
D' U2 L F2 B2 U // 9 4c4 4e

I suck

U2 B F2 R // EO (4)
F' U' // 4c2e (6)
(B2 D2 B L2 B2 D B2 D) // 14 4a1 4e
L2 [F2] R2 U2 F^' // HTR (19)
U2 R2 F2 D2 L2 // Slice (24)
^=w
[]=Fw F
+1/25

D' L' D2 B' R // EO (5)
U' F' // 3c2e (7)
D B' U' B // 11 2c3 2e
U2 $ B2 U B2 U R2 U' // HTR (18)
R2 L2 U2 # L2 // Wrong slice (22)
#=U2 F B' R2 F' B // pretty obvious 6-2
But then I started looking for post-dr insertions and I found this...
$=U F2 B2 D' B2 D F2 B2 U' B2 // 10-7 :)
Now rewrite htr: U' F2 B2 D' B2 D F2 U R2 U'
I like fmc :)
There were a ton of 5 move eos that were like D (     ) but I didnt have time to check any of them

L (U' B L) // EO (4)
(D) // 4c4e (5)
F' D2 F B D2 F2 U2 B U // 14 4a1 4e
R2 B // HTR lol (16)
L2 U2 F2 D2 F2 R2 U2 L2 // Finish (24)
Very annoying scram, which is why I switched to unlimited
This was the best thing I found :/
Most of my other drs were 2c4 or 2c5 in 11 or 12
Heres something really cool I found:
D2 B' R B // EO
L' U L // 3c2e
(R2 U R' U R) // 12 2c5 4e
(U') // 13 2c4 0e
(L D' R U2 R' D L') // DR breaking trigger for 2c4 0e
(B2 D2 L2 B2 R2) // Slice (25)

(R' L D L) // EO (4)
(U2 F) // 2c0e
(B D F2 D B') // 11 2c3 4e
L2 D $ (U^' R2 U^') // HTR (16)
L2 U2 // Floppy (18)
B2 R2 B2 R2 B2 // Slice (23)
I tried queezing a +1 out of widening moves, when that gave +2 at best I realized that I could use half turn 3e insertions...
$=D2 R2 U^2 F2 D2 L2 U2 B2 (8-7)
^=w
+1/24

(R2 F' R B') // EO (4)
(U) // 4c4e
(L' U2 F2 D2 U2 L' D) // 12 4b2 4e
(U2 L2 B2 L D2 F2 R) // HTR (19)
(U2 L2 B2 D2) // Linear 23 lol

Backup solution:
(L' D'), F' L' B2 R' F' R B' R' // 10 4b2 4e
D2 B D2 L2 U2 L2 F' // HTR (17)
D2 F2 D2 F2 U2 R2 U2 L2 // 25
Theres also this 4 qt HTR that gives 24 to slice:
(L' D), F' L' B2 R' F' R B' R' 
F (L2 D2 B' D2 B D2 B)
(D2 L2 B2 U2 F2 U2)
I missed this one but I'm too lazy to check if it gives +0 or not (I'm assuming it does, seeing as it's 4 qt)

Other:

This DR gives a 20, the htr used to get to it is a little weird though, so I don't think I would've found it
I honestly should've found this within an hour (I'm submitting this as unlimited), but since this eo gave 4c4e anyway I didn't think about further reducing it :/
