3x3 OLL 8 algorithm
3x3 OLL 8 algorithm: 7 turns, opening with y2 Rw' 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 8 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: UFR. Upper edges with that color facing up: UB, UR.
Execute the algorithm
y2 Rw' U' R U' R' U2 Rw
The opening is y2 Rw' U'; the final segment is R' U2 Rw. This version contains 7 face, wide, or slice turns and 1 whole-puzzle rotation.
