3x3 · 1LLL
3x3 1LLL 1 40 algorithm
3x3 1LLL 1 40 algorithm: 15 turns, opening with y2 Rw' U'. Case recognition, the complete sequence, and practical execution notes.
Solve this specific last-layer orientation and permutation in one sequence after completing the first two layers.
Recognize this starting position
In the inverse-derived training position, the upper-face color points upward at these corner positions: none. Upper edges with that color facing up: none. Reading each side’s top row left to right when facing that side gives F: R U F; R: U U U; B: F U L; L: U U U. The letters identify colors by their reference faces.
Execute the algorithm
y2 Rw' U' Rw U2 R' U Rw' F R F' Rw U' Rw' U Rw
The opening is y2 Rw' U'; the final segment is Rw' U Rw. This version contains 15 face, wide, or slice turns and 1 whole-puzzle rotation.
