OLL 12
3x3
Follow each turn at your own pace.
0 / 11

Move 1 of 11: y'

Orient the last layer after completing F2L; permutation is handled in the next stage.

OLL 12 belongs to the Lightning Shapes group in OLL.

Recognize this starting position

In the inverse-derived training position, the upper-face color points upward at these corner positions: UBR. Upper edges with that color facing up: UF, UR.

Execute the algorithm

y' M' R' U' R U' R' U2 R U' M

The opening is y' M' R'; the final segment is R U' M. This version contains 10 face, wide, or slice turns and 1 whole-puzzle rotation.
