OLL (Orientation)
OLL makes the entire top face Yellow. It doesn’t matter if the side colors match yet.
2-Look OLL
Instead of learning 57 algorithms, beginners should learn “2-Look OLL”:
- Edge Orientation: Make the Yellow Cross (same as Beginner Method).
- Corner Orientation: Twist the corners to be yellow.
Step 1: The Cross
Use F R U R' U' F' (Line) or F U R U' R' F' (L-shape) to get the cross.
Step 2: The Corners (7 Cases)
Once you have the cross, there are only 7 possible corner patterns. Here are the most common two (“Sune” and “Anti-Sune”).
Sune (Fish shape, correct corner at front-left)
