3x3 OLL 41 algorithm
3x3 OLL 41 algorithm: 13 turns, opening with y2 R U. Case recognition, the complete sequence, and practical execution notes.
Orient the last layer after completing F2L; permutation is handled in the next stage.
OLL 41 belongs to the Awkward Shapes group in OLL.
Recognize this starting position
In the inverse-derived training position, the upper-face color points upward at these corner positions: UBL, UBR. Upper edges with that color facing up: UF, UR.
Execute the algorithm
y2 R U R' U R U2 R' F R U R' U' F'
The opening is y2 R U; the final segment is R' U' F'. This version contains 13 face, wide, or slice turns and 1 whole-puzzle rotation.
