Emma's Best Odds Method | Emma's Non-Linear Method

This method consists of blockbuilding the F2L alg-free, and using algs to solve the last layer in a variety of ways depending on the scenario, there are a total of 86 cases which can be solved in 86 or less algs since many cases are mirrors/inversions.
Can also be viewed as a programming switch of substeps to get the most of your learned algs

1. F2B

1. Solve two opposite 1x2x3 blocks (as in Roux, any order)

2. F2L

2. Solve last 2 edges of F2L (the floor). [Additional notes]

COLL + ELL (71 algs)

3.1 If the U-cross nor the edges are oriented do COLL(42 algs)

4.1 ELL (29 algs)

COLL + EPLL (no new algs)

3.2 If the edges are oriented do COLL, as in 3.1 (42 algs, PLL skip 1/12 chance)

4.2 EPLL (4 algs of ELL)

OLL + PLL (15 algs)

3.3 If the corners are oriented but not permuted do OLL (3 algs of ELL namely X, H or big fish).

4.3 PLL (21 algs - 4 ELL - 2 COLL = 15)

ELL (no new algs)

3.4 If the corners are solved (oriented & permuted) do ELL, same as 3.1 (29 algs)

Variation

Column 5

Step 2 may be improved using L5EOP (20 algs - 3 ELL) when solving the last floor edge (FD edge), this sets up for 3.2 always. Recommended variation for learning ZBLL (493 algs - 42 COLL - 15 PLL = 436)in the future.
