0 / 12

Move 1 of 12: y2

Solve the entire last layer in one sequence when its edges are already oriented.

ZBLL Pi 21 belongs to the Pi 2 group in ZBLL.

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

Execute the algorithm

y2 L' U R U' L U' R' U' R U' R'

The opening is y2 L' U; the final segment is R U' R'. This version contains 11 face, wide, or slice turns and 1 whole-puzzle rotation.
