Hello,
When you start with F2L intuitively, it's completely normal to be
quite slow at the beginning.
When I did that too, I did the same as you : playing with the pieces
so that I luckily find a basic case.
But then with time you'll find ways to improve your solution for any
case. Just give it time and you'll be fine (I never learned any F2L
alg and yet I can do them around 11 seconds on average.)
Good luck !
Gilles.
