Move 1 of 11: U

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

EG2 L 1 belongs to the L group in EG 2.

Recognize this starting position

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

Execute the algorithm

U L2 B2 L U' L' U L F' L F

The opening is U L2 B2; the final segment is F' L F. This version contains 11 face, wide, or slice turns and no whole-puzzle rotations.
