Move 1 of 13: y'

Solve the remaining 2x2 corners when the completed first face has an adjacent swap in its layer.

EG1 AS 5 belongs to the AS group in EG 1.

Recognize this starting position

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

Execute the algorithm

y' R U R' F' U' R U R' U' R U R'

The opening is y' R U; the final segment is R U R'. This version contains 12 face, wide, or slice turns and 1 whole-puzzle rotation.
