"Mainstream" = share of their executions using the field's most common alg for that case. A lower number than the field average means a more unusual alg sheet.

OLL algorithms

2 recognized executions · 50% done with the field's most common alg for the case (field average 58%) · go-to alg differs from the field's on 1 of 2 cases
