0 / 13

Move 1 of 13: R2

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

ZBLL U 52 belongs to the U5 group in ZBLL.

Recognize this starting position

In the inverse-derived training position, the upper-face color points upward at these corner positions: UFR, UFL. 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: L F R; R: B L R; B: U R U; L: L B B. The letters identify colors by their reference faces.

Execute the algorithm

R2 D' R U R' D R U R U' R' U' R

The opening is R2 D' R; the final segment is R' U' R. This version contains 13 face, wide, or slice turns and no whole-puzzle rotations.
