Move 1 of 14: y2

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: UL, UR. Reading each side’s top row left to right when facing that side gives F: R U L; R: U L F; B: U U U; L: F R U. The letters identify colors by their reference faces.

Execute the algorithm

y2 F' Rw U M U R' U2 Rw' F M' F R F'

The opening is y2 F' Rw; the final segment is F R F'. This version contains 13 face, wide, or slice turns and 1 whole-puzzle rotation.
