The "one pair" approach

Difficulty Hard
Efficiency Produces very good solutions.
Applications Useful in fewest-moves solving (and maybe in speed cubing, after a lot of practice).

For speed cubing, the "two pairs" approach is quite effective. But for fewest moves solving, it is possible to get even fewer moves by permuting the edges while solving the second pair. Opportunities are most obvious when one of the corners is already aligned:
