Attempt 1

Scramble

R' U' F U2 B2 D2 B U2 L2 B U2 F' L2 R2 F' U F' R' U B U' B D' B2 R' U' F

Results

F2 R2 B2 D L2 U2 L2 D' R2 F B2 U2 F B' U R2 L2 B R B R'

(R B' R')
(B' L2 R2 U' R2 B)//4b2 (9)
F2 R2 B2 D L2 U2 L2 D'
R2 B2 F U2 F B' R2 B//solve (21)

Final: F2 R2 B2 D L2 U2 L2 D' R2 B2 F U2 F B' U R2 L2 B R B R'

other DRs:

L U' L'
U' F L2 B' D2 B' D//4a2 (10)

(R B' R)
(U' B' U D' F' D' F)//4a2 (10)

L' D2 L B
U L R2 D L2 D//4c3 (10)

(B D L2 B)
(U' L' U' L)//4c3 (8)

I searched for DRs for waaaay too long on this, only started working on finishes at >35 mins. When I got this scramble I thought it would be the best in the set by far, turns out I was about to be proven very wrong...

Mallard says the only way to beat 21 on this scramble is to do 11 to DR, so eh

Attempt 2

Scramble

R' U' F R U R2 B2 D2 R2 F2 U2 R U2 R F L' F2 R2 B2 R U' R' U' F

Results

B' U2 R' B2 L' F' U2 F L2 U2 D2 F' D2 L2 B2 R2 F2 B L

//EO (0)
(L') B' U2 R' B2 L'//2c4 (6)
(F) F' U2 F L2 U2 D2 B'
L2 U2 F2 U2//S slice (18)

...F' U2 F L2 U2 D2 [B' L2 U2 F2 U2 F'] L

[]->F' D2 L2 B2 R2 B F2 (19)

Final: B' U2 R' B2 L' F' U2 F L2 U2 D2 F' D2 L2 B2 R2 B F2 L

I missed an 18 on this scramble:

L’ F’ L’ (F2 B’ U2 L’ B2 L)//4b2 (9)
(B L2 D2 R2 U2 B)
(D2 R2)//17 to slice +3, I found this after 19 so I basically stopped checking this DR after that.

This slice can be made into 18 like this:

L’ F’ L’ (F2 B’ U2 L’ B2 L)//4b2 (9)
(** Bw L2 D2 R2 U2 Bw)//make it off by 4x on S
(D2* R2)

*=E2
**=M2//solve in 18, cool thing you can do when it’s 4b2 8e like in this case, but I forgot about it :(

Other DRs:

B2 R’ D2 R’
U2 F L2 F//4b2 (8)

(D2 F’ D2 F)
(U’ R U R)//2c4 (8)

(B D2 F2 D2 B’ R’ F2 R)//4b2 (8)

Wtf is that EO count lol. For the EO skip axis I basically wrote R, L, F, B and (R), (L), (F), (B) and treated them like 1 move EOs to find RZP off of. I also switched F B, R L, (F B), (R L) and a bunch of the R F B type stuff before time ran out. Also the final solution for the 6 to 2c4 needing reduction into 2c3 6e is kind of cringe tbh

By the way, this scramble is 15 optimal :O

Attempt 3

Scramble

R' U' F U L' D2 B2 L2 B2 R2 D' R2 B2 D B2 L B R2 D2 L' U2 R' U2 R' U' F

Results

F L2 B' L2 B' R2 L F2 B L2 F2 R2 F U2 B' R D B' U' L'

(L U B D')
(R') F L2 B' L2 B' L//2c3, with a cool corner case changing strat (11)
([F R2 B' L2 F2 R2 B])
(R2)//S slice (19)

[]->(B U2 F' R2 F2 L2 B' F2) (20)

Final: F L2 B' L2 B' L R2 F2 B L2 F2 R2 F U2 B' R D B' U' L'

Optimal after EO :)

Other DRs:

(L) L U2 F2 R
(D2 U’ F’ D2 B D)//2c3 (11)

(L U D’ B)
(L’ R2 D’ L2 F2 B2 U)//2c3 (11)

D2 R’ U B
D R F2 U L R//cool DRs are always bad subsets (10)

I thought my chances of getting AsR/WR were gone upon seeing the scramble but then this 9 move finish just appeared lol, mallard doesn't really find any sub-20 on this so I suppose this is human optimal?
