Move 1 of 12: R

Solve the four upper corners in Roux after building both side blocks; the remaining edges are solved later.

Pi Up Slash belongs to the Pi group in CMLL.

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, UB. Reading each side’s upper corner stickers left to right when facing that side gives F: R U; R: F L; B: U F; L: U U. The letters identify colors by their reference faces.

Execute the algorithm

R U2 R' U' R U R' U2 R' F R F'

The opening is R U2 R'; the final segment is F R F'. This version contains 12 face, wide, or slice turns and no whole-puzzle rotations.
