Funny solution, the +2 extension is technically a cancellation into a 2e2e alg but I was lazy to figure out the alg so I just eyeballed how to +2 instead.

21 is possible:

I guess I should take this as a sign to start using DR bounding...

Bad scramble but I shouldn’t have missed optimal on this.

other:

L' (U D2 L)
(D' B) D F U2 D2 B//2c3 4e. it's 21 optimal with 5q... (11)

L' R' (U' L)
D' F U' L2 B D//2c4 with cool DR, it's also 22 optimal... (10)

Another bad EO count, I switched every single 4 move EO on this.

Other:

(U’) U’ B’ D
(F) B2 R’ B2 L B//4b2 4e (10)

U’ R’ (U’ F R)
(F2 D) U2 F2 U//fun but bad DR

I probably should have switched this RZP but I didn’t:

(U' R D' F U)      // eoud               (5/5)
                   // rzpfb-eoud         (0/5)

B (L2 B')          // htr-drfb           (3/14)
L2 U2 F2 B2 L2 U2  // frud               (6/20)

optimal is 22 and uses 4qt, I actually switched the qt but idk why I did not find the 22...

D' F U2 R2 D2 R2 F U2 B R2 B D2 L2 (13)

I didn't have anything else on this scramble. Mallard doesn’t find any reasonable solution that is sub-22, so by missing this optimal I missed mallard optimal...

That leave slice solution is the first 11 moves I tried on the cube after switching lol, I just went '4b2 4e with U2s on both sides, let's just do 4q' and tada

When the only possible +0 works

The only scramble in the comp with a 3 move EO!!!!! There was a 20 from that but I missed the DR lol, luckily I got another 20 too.
