Sarah Advanced Algorithms
Sarah's Advanced is a skewb method for solvers who want to get pretty serious about skewb. It's not quite as fast as NS, but it's a step up from Sarah's Intermediate.
This method is fast because there are only two steps: 1) Solve the first side. 2) Solve the rest.
There are 134 cases for step 2. Most of them can be done with sledgehammers (R' F R F') and hedgeslammers (F R' F' R). Some of the cases are so inefficient, that we recommend
Sarah's Advanced is not to be confused with NS. Instead of using sledges and hedges, NS uses speed-optimal algorithms. If you want to learn some NS but don't want to learn every alg, the Last 5 Center cases and 5 Trigger cases are good to start with. Those are particularly slow in Sarah's Advanced method.
Note: Sledge y2 Sledge is basically a U Perm, so we recommend using speed-friendly fingertricks in those cases.
Sarah Strong created this method, so the information on this page is credited to her.
