(R D B L') // EO (4/4)
F // DR-44 (1/5)
(U D L2 F) // DR, 4b2 4e (4/9)

Had a 23 from a 11+2 so I decided to blind switch some 4 move eos (as I had not written many eos in 5).

F2 R (B R') // EO (4/4)
(B D2 B' U) // DR, 2c5 (4/8)

extend

F2 R' (B R') // EO (4/4)
(B D F2 D B' U') // DR, 4a1 4e (6/10)
L2 B' (B' R2 B') // HTR (5/15)
(L2 D2 L2 F2 R2 L2) // finish (6/21)

Had a double slice in 18...

(B D2 R' U') // EO (4/4)
(R2 U2 F' D2 R2 F) // DR, 4b2 (6/10)
R' U2 F2 B2 R // HTR (5/18)
U2 R2 D2 // M+S (3/18)

M in +1, S is trash.

(L') B2 L // EO (3/3)
B L2 F B2 D // DR, 4b2 2e (5/8)
F' D2 B (D2 F' U2 F) // HTR (7/15)
(D2 R2 L2 F2) // Leave slice (4/19)

Optimal from DR, but I feel like there is a 17/18 from this start somewhere. Had a 2e2e in 16 at some point but insertion gave +6

D2 F' R F' // EO (4/4)
L // DR-42 2p (1/5)
(D' L D2 L) // DR, 4c3 (4/9)
U F2 U' L2 D2 F2 D // HTR (7/16)
F2 // 2e2e (1/17)

Then rewrite slice to get parallel 2e2e and solve it inside the trigger blah blah blah...

Had a early 21 from a HTR variation.

D2 F' R F' // EO (4/4)
L // DR-42 2p (1/5)
(D' L D2 L) // DR, 4c3 (4/9)
U B2 U F2 U2 R2 U // HTR (7/16)
B2 L2 F2 D2 B2 // finish (5/21)

R B D L // EO (4/4)
D // DR-78 (1/5)
L2 F D2 U B D' // DR, 4b2 4e (6/11)
(B' R2 B U2 D2 [F' D2 F']) // HTR (8/19)
(R2 D2 L2) // Leave slice (3/22)

[] = (B' L2 B F2) // Slice (+1/23)

Another meh result....

F (R D' F) // EO (4/4)
U2 D R2 U L B2 R' // DR, 4c3 (7/11)
B2 D' (L2 R2 B2 L2 D L2 D) // HTR (9/20)
(L2 D2 R2 F2) // Leave slice (4/24)

Slice in +0

Thought this was a 25... no sub 24 DR optimal wtffff.

R' F R2 U // EO (4/4)
(R' B2 L' [F' L2 F]) // DR, 2c3 (6/10)
R' B2 L' B2 L // HTR (5/15)
[B2 R2 U2 D2] // Leave S slice (4/19)


[] = (B' U2 F R2 L2 D2 F' B') // Slice (+1/20)

That's nice given that it is 10 days of pause. Had a early 23 from it then a 22 and then I knew that I had to work on double slice but I'm not that used so I just forced out the optimal.

(B) R' D' F // EO (4/4)
(U2 D2 L' U' R U') // DR, 2c3 4e (6/10)
(L U2 F2 B2 R' B2 D2 L) // HTR (8/18)
(B2 R2 F2 L2 U2 B2) // finish (6/24)

But optimal was 23, too much to check and crappy DR. short rzps gave nothing good. Had a 11+3 that was 21 opt with 5qt...

(B) R' D' F // EO (4/4)
(U2 D2 L' U' R U') // DR, 2c3 4e (6/10)
(L U2 F2 B2 R) B2 U2 F2 L' // HTR (9/19)
U2 F2 L2 U2 // finish (4/23)

D' F (L' B) // EO (4/4)
(R) // DR-44 (1/5)
D R2 U2 F2 D' R' // DR, 4c3 2e (6/11)
D' L2 D' R2 U' R2 U L2 U // HTR (9/20)

(R' D F B') // EO (4/4)

(R2 U L2 U2 L') // DR, 4b3 (5/10)
U (U F2 R2 U) // HTR (5/15)
F2 R2 U2 L2 F2 L2 F2 // Leave slice (7/22)

Slice in +0

Variation heavy DRs... 21 opt with a crappy double slice

(F L' U B) // EO (4/4)
(D' R' D R') // DR-32 (4/8)
(U' L' U L) // DR, 2c3 4e (4/12)
(D R2 U' B2 R2 U' &) // HTR (6/18)
(B2 R2 B2 U2 & D2 R2) // finish (6/24)

& = E2 // simplify (-1/23)

That's a joke... had only drs in 12, one of them was 4b2 4e and 22 opt with 4qt. 

(F L' U B') // EO (4/4)
L' U' L // DR-32 (3/7)
U2 D' R U' R // DR, 4b2 4e (5/12)
D' F2 D' (R2 D L2 F2 U') // HTR (8/20)
(L2 F2) // finish (2/22)

B R' F' U B // EO (5/5)
(F2 U2 R U L') // DR, 4a1 4e (5/10)
R2 F2 L2 F2 D // HTR (5/15)
R2 F2 R2 D2 F2 U2 F2 // finish (7/22)

One good eo type of scramble (44 checked).
Missed the 21 from the other variation, not the easiest double slice imo.

(B U) // EO (2/2)
(R' F') // DR-32 (2/4)
D2 L B L B' // DR, 2c3 6e (5/9)
R' (U2 L2 F2 L' F2 L') // HTR (7/16)
(U' D' L2 U' D) // finish (5/21)

Fortunately the 4a2 had nothing good.
Had a 21 to slice initially but no +0/1 I guess.

(L' U B) // EO (3/3)
L2 D // JZP (2/5)
F2 U2 R D2 L' // DR, 2c3 4e (5/10)
U' R2 L2 U2 R2 U' R2 U' // HTR (8/18)
R2 B2 L2 F2 // Leave slice (4/22)

Slice in +0

Tried to make the 9+4 work but in the end it was 23 opt in 6qts...
Also had some other dr in 10 but none of them had optimal below 23.

D R F // EO (3/3)
U2 L D2 U' L D // DR, 2c4 (6/9)

(B' L2 D' B) // EO (4/4)
(D' L2 D R2 U' L) // DR, 4c4 (6/10)

D R F // EO (3/3)
(U' L) // DR-32 (2/5)
(U D2 R' D R) // DR, 2c4 (5/10)

U2 F' U L // EO (4/4)
D // DR-44 2p (1/5)
(B' R2 U2 F D) // DR, 2c4 (5/10)

and other in 11-12

(U' D' R2 D) // EO (4/4)
(R) // DR-44 (1/5)
(B' U2 R2 B L) // DR, 2c3 (5/10)
U2 B D2 F L2 F // HTR (6/16)
D2 L2 U2 F2 // Leave slice (4/20)

Slice in +1

Too much for my new technique, not enough pace to check all extensions.
The two variations from the 3 mover were 23 opt and also had a 10 4b2 0e that was 23 opt.

U L' F' R // EO (4/4)
U' F' // DR-44, JZP 2p (2/6)
(U2 L2 B) // DR, 4a3 2e (3/9)
(D') R2 U' F2 B2 L2 D // HTR (7/16)
B2 R2 D2 L2 // Leave slice (4/20)

Slice in +1

Optimal from DR, missed the two DR-46 that give the two 20s.
Had also a 10+4a2 to work with (21 opt with 4 qt) and a 9+5 just in case.

(F' L2 U' L') // EO (4/4)
(F') // DR-42, AR-20 1p (1/5)
D2 U R2 U' B D2 B // DR, 4a2 4e (7/12)
U2 F2 D' B2 U2 F2 R2 U // HTR (8/20)
B2 D2 L2 // Leave slice (3/23)

Solved in +0

Trying to combine ARM and pairs, I have to pick up the pace cause I had only two "usable" DRs. 

D' B' D2 L' // EO (4/4)
(L2 B' D2 B' D) // DR, 2c4 (5/9)
B (U2 F R2 F' R2 F) // HTR (7/16)
(L2 F2 D2 L2 D2) // Leave slice (5/21)

Slice in +1

Optimal from DR, mallard gives some strange 21 opt DRs but cursed to find imo.

F R F' B L' // EO (5/5)
F2 D2 F U F // DR, 4b2 2e (5/10)
(L2 B2 U2 & R2 D R2 D) // HTR (7/17)
(U2 & F2 R2 D2 B2) // finish (5/22)

& = E2 // simplify (-1/21)

first attempt using ARM stats correctly, I have to pick up the pace, hopefully the random 5 move eo made up the work.

And now some strange DRs:

(D') L' U B' D // EO, DR-7c8e (5/5)
(B' F2 L' F2 R) // DR, 2c4 2e (5/10) wait that's not the axis...

B' D2 L' U F // EO (5/5)
L2 U' // DR-3c6e (2/7)
R2 L2 D' L' R2 U // DR, 4b4... (6/13)

(F2 D L) // EO (3/3)
(U D) // DR-4c4e (2/5)
(F' B R2 D2 F' D) // DR, 4b2 2e (6/11)
D2 L2 B' L2 F' // HTR (5/16)
L2 D2 R2 B2 // finish (4/20)

Nice, found the 8+5 straightaway but was trash, JZP was 20 opt but unfindable imo.

(B D R' U2 L) // EO (5/5)
(U) // DR-4c4e (1/6)
(L2 F L2 F' B2 D') // DR, 2c3 (6/12)
(L2 F') F U2 F' // HTR (5/17)
(L2 U2 D2 B2 L2 D2 L2) // Leave slice (7/24)


Had this and a 11+4 (25 opt), probably the worst scramble I had this year, hands down.
Optimal from this is 23... reducing to 4b2 4e, my beloved

L2 F2 R' // EO (3/3)
(D' B) // DR-4c4e (2/5)
U L2 U' D2 B2 U B // DR, 4a1 (7/12)
U2 B2 R2 B2 D' // Double slice (5/17)

+5 for M, +2 for E...

(U2 F') U2 F // EO (4/4)
R' D2 B2 D' L' U // DR, 4b2 2e (6/10)
(D2 L' D2 L') // HTR (4/14)
F2 L2 U2 B2 R2 U2 B2 // finish (7/21)

Tried a lot the other 10+2 (it was 23 opt). 9+5 looked bad but was 21 opt...

B2 L U2 B' // EO (4/4)
D' // DR-4c2e (1/5)
R2 L' U' R2 U // DR, 4a2 4e (5/10)
R2 U2 F2 L' (U2 F2 L2 F2 R) // HTR (9/19)
(U2 L2 U2 F2) // finish (4/23)

Optimal from all variations...
Had a random 25 from blockino:

(L D B') // EO (3/3)
(L' U2) // 222 (2/5)
(R' D R2 D2) // 223 (4/9)
(R') // DR-4c4e (1/10)

(L) L B2 L' D2 L' B2 L' // HTR (8/19)

5qt on "fake" 1qt???? alright.

(D B2 L2 F') // EO (4/4)
(U' R2 U2 B2 D L) // DR, 4b2 4e (6/10)
(R2 U' R2 F2 D') // HTR (5/15)
(B2 R2 D2 F2 U2 B2) // finish (6/21)

Tried to make a 10 4a2 work, but was bad. I found this DR in the last 10 minutes, quite fortunate otherwise I had to submit a random 25...

(D B2 D L') // EO (4/4)
(B' D2 F' U D2 L2 D') // DR, 4b2 (7/11) extension
(F U2 R2 B' &) // HTR (4/15)
(L2 U2 F2 R2 F2 & B2 U2) // finish (7/22)

& = S2 // simplify (-1/21)

Had the two 8+4, +15 opt wtf.

(B2 R' L D') // EO (4/4)
(R') // DR-4c2e (1/5)
L' B L2 F L // DR, 4b2 (5/10)
(B' R2 F') // HTR (3/13)
(U2) // 2e+M (1/14)

so, sort of flip it:

(B2 R' L D') // EO (4/4)
(R') // DR-4c2e (1/5)
L' B L2 F (B' R2 F) // DR, 4a1 (7/12)
(U2 [L2 U2 L2 U2 R' L' D2 F2 R L2]) // finish (11/23)

[] = (R' L' F2 R2 B2 L2 U2 B2 R') // simplify (-1/22)

Optimal was 21 with hard 4qt or inserting a random 3e before HTR on inverse... had a backup 23 from a slice in 22 4qt of this DR.

(B2 R' L D') // EO (4/4)
(R) // DR-4c2e (1/5)
L' B L2 F L' // DR, 4b2 (5/10)
(F U2 B L2 F U2 F) // HTR (7/17)

L' (F' R L') // EO (4/4)
(D) // JZP (1/5)
U F2 D' R2 D // DR, 4b3 (5/10)
(L2 F' D2 F') L2 U2 L2 D2 F' // HTR (9/19)
L2 U2 F2 U2 // finish (4/23)

but...

L' (F' R L') // EO (4/4)
(D) // JZP (1/5)
U2 D' L2 D' F2 U' // extended (6/11)

(R2 U' L2 D' R2 U2 L2 D') // HTR (8/17)

10+9 = 21.

but...

B2 D B' L' // EO (4/4)
F' // DR-4c4e (1/5)
R2 [U2 D' F] // DR, 2c3 (4/9)
(R2 D' B2 U L2 D) // HTR (6/15)
(R2 L2) // AB2e2e (2/17)

[] = D' F2 D2 B2 D2 F' // 2e2e (6-3/20)

NICE.

(F2 L' F) // EO (3/3)

R D2 F2 U' // DR, 2c4 (4/8)
(R' B2 R) D2 R' U2 R' // HTR (7/15)

Slice in +0

Sprint scramble, always tough ones but opt from DR.

D L U B D // EO (5/5)
L // DR-4c4e (1/6)
D2 R2 F U2 B2 L // DR, 4b2 4e (6/12)
(D2 F D2 R2 F) // HTR (5/17)
(R2 D2 F2 R L F2 R L) // finish (8-2/23)

Had a 10+4 but was trash. Didn't have the 2+2 eo, but idk if I would have found the 22 from it tbh.

L (D' B2 R) // EO (4/4)
(F2 B2 D' L2 U2 B) // DR, 2c3 (6/10)
(R2 D R2 U' L2 U') // HTR (6/16)
(F2 L2 B2 L2 D2) // Leave slice (5/21)

Slice in +1

Had too much to check, I tried some variations of the L2 F2 D (L) thing but there where like 8 DRs, too much to see... in the end there was a 20

R2 B2 U'          // eo-ud       (3/3)
(L')              // rzp-fb-eoud (1/4)
B' U2 B R' F' L   // dr-fb-eoud  (6/10)
D2 F (F' U2 B')   // htr-fb      (5/15)
(L2 D2 F2 U2 L2)  // finish      (5/20)

Found a interesting DR but 9+5 bruh (from the two variations it is 22 opt, but didn't try it much).

R2 B2 U // EO (3/3)
(R) // DR-3c4e (1/4) -> it is DR-4c4e for B2 R2 U
L' F U2 F2 L' // DR, 2c5 (5/9)

B2 U2 B2 D2 // Leave slice (4/22)

Slice in +0

Had like 4 usable drs, 4 of them were from this EO, which 3 of them with 3c6e trigger (on both axis also).

(F) F' R' D B
(L2 U' L R2 D) // 10 4b2 4e

(F) F' R' D B
U2 R2 L' U D2 R  // 11 4b2 4e

(B U2 L2 F U2 F' R2 D2 B) // HTR (9/19)
(U2 B2 D2 F2) // finish (4/23)

Missed a couple of 22s... At least this is optimal from DR.
I worked a lot on this and another DR (the other was 24 opt).

(D) F L2 U // EO (4/4)
B // DR-3c6e (1/5)
(L' F2 B' R L2 F) // DR, 2c3 (6/11)

Had this DR (and the other variation) but no time to check:

(U R' B' R' D) // EO (5/5)
B R2 B2 L' F' R // DR, 2c4 (6/11)
L2 F' U2 F' (B U2 F) // HTR (7/18)
(D2 F2 L2 R2) // finish (4/22)

And somehow forgot to try switch rzp from this:

(D) F L2 U // EO (4/4)
(L') // DR-3c6e (1/5)
B' L B' F2 R // DR, 2c3 (5/10)
(D2 F' L2 U2 B' D2 F) // HTR (7/17)
(D2 L2 D2 R2 F2) // finish (5/22)

In the end scramble was sort of awful, so 23 is ok.

(R D F') // EO (3/3)
L // DR-4c4e (1/4)
(U L2 U B2 L') // DR, 4b2 (5/9)
U' (B2 R2 B2 U2 R2 U2 R2 D') // HTR (9/18)
(U2 F2) // finish (2/20)

Simplify for 19.

18s are not findable, nice.
If you want to read it as a normal person:

(R D F') // EO (3/3)
L // DR-4c4e (1/4)
(U L2 U B2 L') // DR, 4b2 (5/9)
U' F2 D' // HTR (3/12)
L2 U2 L2 D2 B2 R2 B2 // finish (7/19)

Also had a 20 from the other variation:

(R D F') // EO (3/3)
L // DR-4c4e (1/4)
(D' R2 U' B2 R) // DR, 4b2 (5/9)
U F2 R2 F2 B2 U // HTR (6/15) -> Kinda 4xM FR thingy
R' L' D2 L2 U2 L' R // finish (7-2/20)

(F2 R' D B') // EO (4/4)

U' (R2 D' L2 U' F2 U') // HTR (7/17)
(R2 F2 R2 D2 L2) // finish (5/22)

Optimal from all variations, had no super good DR tbh... I feel like there is a very good block solution from niss 2+2.

B' (F D2 B) // EO (4/4)
(L' B2 D F2 U) // DR, 2c4 0e (5/9)
(L' U2 L B2 R' F2 R) // HTR (7/16)

Nice eo, nice dr, nice solve.

(L' R' F D) // EO (4/4)
(R' U2 R D2 L' B) // DR, 2c3 (6/10)
(D2 R) B2 D2 L U2 L' // HTR (7/17)
B2 L2 U2 R2 L2 F2 // finish (6/23)

Simplify for 22.

(B) F D L B // EO (5/5)
R // DR-4c6e (1/6)
D' R U2 L // DR, 2c4 (4/10)
(D' B2 D2 L2 D B2 U' B2 L2 U) // HTR (10/20)
(L2 F2 R2 U2) // Leave slice (4/24)

Slice in +0

Bad scramble, this was the first eo I checked, nothing else came up under 13 moves... Mallard finds a pretty easy 22 from a eo I didn't write.

(B' D2 R F) // EO (4/4)
R2 D' L2 D // DR, 4c3 (4/8)
(L') B2 R (B2 L2 U2 L) // HTR  (7/15)
(B2 R2 U2 R2 F2) // finish (5/20)

7+4 was 21 opt... missed the 18.

(L R2 U' R L) // EO (5/5)
(U R2 L2 U B' L2 F') // DR, 2c4 (7/12)
D' F2 D' B2 U' L2 U2 R2 U // HTR (9/21)
L2 // Leave slice (1/22)

Slice in +0

Pure luck.
Tried switching from it cause of variations and had 1 move to good 2c3 2e. Shortest DR was 11+5.

(U) F2 L2 U // EO (4/4)

U2 B' U2 L2 F' U2 F // HTR (7/16)
R L' B2 D2 R L' // finish (6-2/20)

Had a early 22 from a 11+2 so I had the time to check all in depth, mallard seems to find 20 at best. Rolling 19.67 from 333.fm A2 yay (PB tied).

(F) L' F B' // EO (4/4)

Good scramble, mallard finds a complicate 19 from a 12 to DR

Lucky. Had a 10+3 2c3 that was 24 opt :)

F2 U D2 F // EO (4/4)

The scramble seemed good, it wasn't.

but variationssss

Also had a 10+2 with HTR in 14...

D2 F' R' F // EO (4/4)

B2 R U2 R' // HTR (4/14)
D2 F2 D2 F2 L2 U2 B2 D2 // Leave slice (8/22)

Slice in +1.

Not the luckiest tbh... opt is 22 with 4qt double slice.

This season scrambles are so cursed.

(D' R F' L2 D) // EO (5/5)
(U2 B2 U2 F2 L) // DR, 4b2 (5/10)
L2 F2 D2 L2 B' (D2 L2 F') // HTR (8/18)
(D2 R2 F2 U2 F2) // finish (5/23)

No -1...

Optimal is 22 with 4qt from all variations. Had no other DR that was 22 optimal or better.

(L2 R2 B R') // EO (4/4)
(D' L2 U2 B) // DR, 2c4 (4/8)
R2 D' B2 L2 U L2 U2 L2 D' F2 D' // HTR (11/19)
L2 D2 B2 D2 // finish (4/23)

brooo
DR was 21 opt with 6qt, 22 with 4qt but cursed path.
Had a 10+3 0c, which was bad obviously.

R D L U // EO (4/4)
(D2 L2 B' L2 U2 B' R B L) // DR, 2c3 (9/13)
(D2 F U2 F' U2 F) // HTR (6/19)

Slice in +0

Trash scramble, checked 45 eos, had to rely on the first one trying 7c8e things, quite lucky with the finish but the DR is too long, had a rzp in 6 that was similar to one that could have given 21.
