    L' D2 L2 D // EO
    (B L2 F R2 F' R B R) // DR (12+2) trigger ready
    (B' U2 L2 B) // HTR (16)
    (L2 D2 F2 L2 D2) // Slice (21-1)

    (+1)(21)

    There were many variations for this DR cause EO can be done:
    L' D2 L2 D
    L D2 L2 D
    L' U2 R2 D or
    L U2 R2 D
    and the EO to DR sequence on inverse can be done:
    (B L2 F R2 F' R B R) or
    (F U2 B R2 F' R B R)
    I forgot to check the latter which is just a slice affecting variation, but fortunately it doesn't give a better finish than +9 for 21

    Others:
    (D2 R2 L' F')(D R2 U L) // 8+3
    (B2 D L2 U' R2 D' F2) // 2e2e (15)
    Couldn't beat 21 from this DR
