Move 1 of 14: y'

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: UFR, UFL. Upper edges with that color facing up: none. Reading each side’s top row left to right when facing that side gives F: L U R; R: B U F; B: U U U; L: F U B. The letters identify colors by their reference faces.

Execute the algorithm

y' F U' R F' Rw' U Rw S' Rw' F' U' Rw S

The opening is y' F U'; the final segment is U' Rw S. This version contains 13 face, wide, or slice turns and 1 whole-puzzle rotation.
