Move 1 of 13: R

Solve the final four corners of the 2x2 after completing the first layer.

CLL U 5 belongs to the U group in CLL.

Recognize this starting position

In the inverse-derived training position, the upper-face color points upward at these corner positions: UFR, UFL. Reading each side’s upper corner stickers left to right when facing that side gives F: F R; R: B L; B: U U; L: F L. The letters identify colors by their reference faces.

Execute the algorithm

R U' R2 F R F' R U R' U' R U R'

The opening is R U' R2; the final segment is R U R'. This version contains 13 face, wide, or slice turns and no whole-puzzle rotations.
