This maybe had some potential, but a lot of option to have to explore, and I just messed up and ran out of time in the end.

Found
net [1] -> {3e/5c}
net [5] -> {5c}
net [0] -> {3e/5c} then a net [4] -> {5c} but in the interest of time, I should have just taken the {5c}@[25], and there are still a lot of things to look for in a {22e/2'2'c case} that I just don't have the ability to focus on them all simultaneously, so it takes forever.

Just got this corrected with 1 second left!
Not bad for kind of a disaster of a solution.
{3e/2'2'c} @[17] couldn't really find anything, but I forget how flexible this configuration can be because I remain very fixated on solving the unsolved corners, but it is also very appropriate for my insertion to only involve say 3 of the 4 corners and just create an extra unsolved corner resulting in a {5c} case, or maybe just solving one corner but adding an unsolved one as I found a net [5] to {3'1'c} and was then able to find +[5]+[5] -> {}. If I can remember to consider these options, then this may more easily result in some < net [4] move insertions to solve the edges without making the corner situation worse.

Thought I found a way to do the same nearby with net [10] instead of net [12] but must have messed something up because I couldn't reproduce it. I was hoping to have some time to explore {3e/5c}@[16] case, but ended up wasting a lot of time dealing with trying to reproduce a [27] that I don't think existed, and then it was scary for a couple minutes because I even messed up reproducing the [29] I thought I had secured, but that was realtively easy to resolve since I think I just made a misturn and was pretty confident it worked because I checked it earlier.
I'm also kind of stupid because I should have just looked for a shorter way to just get to {3c}, and in going back, sure enough I found:
3-2: L' [D' R' D R] L; i.e., +[5] {3e/2'2'c} -> {3c} [22], and then within this I found
3-2-3: L2 D R D' L2 D R' D'; i.e., +[4] -> {}
Not even sure that's the best option, but it's pretty decent.

Was pretty happy with seeing {2x2x3} @[7], but noticed I could just keep going and quickly get to F2L-1 and even full F2L. Ending up with {3c}@[22] is already great for me, so I figured I most likely could secure a sub-30, and sure enough found a net [6] to have [28] as a backup solution, and had all of this with about 40 minutes left.
Then I worked the {3e/3'1'c} skeleton and found:
4-5: U [R B' R' B] U' net [5] to {3c}
4-4: R' [F' U F U'] R net [5] to {3c}
Went with the insertion at 4-4 and found at 3-3: F L B' L' F' L B L' net [4] to solve.
Also went back to check the 4-5 insertion, but it resulted in the exact same 3c cycle as the 4-4 one. I think I found one 3c cycle that was a net [5] somewhere in step 4, but that was irrelevant at this point.
Am curious how things might have turned out if I made the switch to I-space after step 2, but I didn't have time for this?
Well I played with it some and got {3e/2'2'1'c}@[16], which isn't all that different from {3e/3'1'c}. There's also {3'2'e/4'1'c}@[11], which would probably be a little much for me to deal with in one hour.
Well since I've already submitted a timed solution:
1. R F2 D'
2. U' F2 R'
3. (L' F' L' U2 R U R') {3'2'e/4'1'c}@[11]

Worked through {3e/2'21'c}@[15] case, but don't really see anything getting me better than [25]

Then found two places where +[10] -> {3c}, but only had time to check one of them out. Didn't help that I made a misturn while looking for the final insertion, but I was a bit lucky and quickly found a net 5-mover to solve after solving and re-scrambling, whereas I thought I only had a net 7-mover before that.

Didn't really have time to explore anything, wanted to at least try the {3e/31'1'c} case, but I only had a little less than 10 minutes left, and it isn't a very good case for me anyway. So I just rushed out two 3c-cycles to finish the {5c} case. I didn't even reconstruct the {5c} skeleton in the normal space and just worked within the moves of the last normal session, but given the circumstances, finding {5c} +[6]+[6] -> {} isn't too bad.

I went for {4e/4c} option and found several insertions that weren't terrible: {5c}@[22], {3e}@[30], {3c}@[28], {3e}@[26], but what was interesting is that at 4-2, a simple [F] move, which is net [-4] got me {22e}@[11]; i.e., it solves all the corners and one edge, but also introduces an unsolved edge. I figured, what the heck, let's look for two 3-edge cycles.
So now my skeleton is:
2. B L2
3. R' D2 R' D
4. F2
5. D' F' D
1. B
At 4-1: F [F2 D U' R2 D' U] F' for {3e}@[17]
I didn't have time to think carefully about the second insertion and just put
U [L2 F' D' U L2 D U' F' L2] U' at the end for {3e} + [11] -> {}. I did search through the entire skeleton for the 2nd insertion, but was a bit rushed. There were also other variations I may have been able to use for the first one, and I didn't look through steps 2 & 3 for the first insertion because I felt the net [6] was pretty good for a 3-edge cycle.
Anyway, I generally try to avoid pure edge cycles, but I figured with 4 edges, it's likely three of them would end up in a decent configuration for the first one, especially since it was {22c}; i.e., doesn't matter which way the edges are sent so regular and inverse algs can be considered. Then it was really about finding the last one.
