I see too much newcomers to the community getting stuck in one method, usually the Mystery Method, so from all my studying and practice I decided to write this post.
As I view it there are lots of pillars of attraction and seduction. I'm going to list a few of them here:
Attraction through social conditioning: This is when you happen to be exact stereotypical type for the women. You have the good looks, the clothing style, etc. No game required, just be yourself.
Attraction through social value: You project high social value. This is what Mystery does. BTW, Mystery Method doesn't necessarily depend on routines, you can use the structure with little or no canned material (much like what Mehow does). The RSD guys also focus on social dynamics through natural game by deep identity level change instead of faking it.
Attraction through sexual state projection: Basically just be a sexual man. Read Gunwitch for more info.
Attraction through moving emotions: If you go directly for the emotions you'll be seen as a manipulative guy. Instead if you capture and lead her imagination you can change her state. This is what you can achieve with Speed Seduction. If you also follow Swinggcat and David DeAngelo you can use tools like Push/Pull and Cocky & Funny to build attraction through emotional/sexual tension.
There are probably a lot more, but if you can mix these doorways of pickup you can really master pickup.
