0 / 15

Move 1 of 15: y

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

ZBLL U 72 belongs to the U6 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: F F F; R: R R B; B: U B U; L: B L L. The letters identify colors by their reference faces.

Execute the algorithm

y R U2 R' U' R U' R' L' U2 L U L' U L

The opening is y R U2; the final segment is L' U L. This version contains 14 face, wide, or slice turns and 1 whole-puzzle rotation.
