0 / 18

Move 1 of 18: F

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

ZBLL U 53 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: R F L; R: F R L; B: U B U; L: R L F. The letters identify colors by their reference faces.

Execute the algorithm

F U R U2 R' U R U R' U R U2 R' U R U R' F'

The opening is F U R; the final segment is U R' F'. This version contains 18 face, wide, or slice turns and no whole-puzzle rotations.
