Sounds fun. I still don’t completely understand commutators so I never learned 3-Style. What method did you use before and what were your times?

My PB is 3:07 with M2/OP. I'm going against the usual recommendation of "practice a lot of memo before learning 3-Style" but I've also read a few comments against doing that saying to just start with 3-Style immediately. Also knowing full 3-Style just sounds amazing.

Do you do BLD too? What are your times and method?

I don't do BLD. I learned it once a while back because I wanted to get an official time, and I managed to get a ~7 minute time at a comp. Since then I've never really practiced. I did OP I believe. I looked up 3-Style because I thought it was interesting but haven't spent any time on it, or on understanding commutators.
