Intermediate
Optimal cross, full F2L and two-look last layer. Consistent sub-30 solves.
Optimal cross
Plan the cross in 8 moves or fewer within inspection, at the right speed.
Full F2L
Look ahead to the next pair while inserting the current one. Fewer rotations, and think about slot choice.
2-look LL
Orient in two looks (edges, then corners) and then permute in two (corners, then edges), moving to full OLL then PLL.
