Step 1
|
The 1st layer When the layer is fully processed, your cube will look like this:
No particular algorithm.
The placement of pieces must remain intuitive.
Here are the main steps:
|
The centers
|
The edges
|
The corners
|
|
Step 1a
|
The centers of the 2nd layer
You will need to make sure that all the centers are oriented correctly, if so you are good.
Otherwise, you have 3 cases for each misdirected center.
Place the centers to be oriented as indicated opposite.
When all the centers are correctly oriented, your cube will look like this:
|
U-turn
|
Quarter turn counterclockwise
|
Quarter turn clockwise
|
|
Step 2
|
The edges of the 2nd layer When all the edges have been processed, your cube will look like this:
|
Case a The red edge is on the 3rd layer on the right
The algorithm allows it to be placed on the 2nd layer.
|
Case b The red edge is on the 3rd layer opposite
The algorithm allows it to be placed on the 2nd layer.
|
Case c The red edge is placed on the 2nd layer and poorly oriented
The algorithm allows it to be lowered to the 3rd layer.
You can then apply the algorithm from case a.
|
|
Step 3.1
|
Orientation of the edges of the 3rd layer When all the edges have been processed, your cube will look like this:
|
Case a The already oriented edges are side by side
The algorithm will orient the Front/Right edges.
|
Case b The already oriented edges are opposite
This formula will orient the Left / Right edges.
|
Case c
None oriented edge
The algorithm will orient the Left / Back edges.
You can then apply the algorithm from case a.
|
|
Step 3.2
|
Placement of the edges of the 3rd layer When all the edges have been processed, your cube will look like this:
|
Case a The already placed edges are side by side
The algorithm will place the Left / Front edges.
|
Case b The already placed edges are opposite
This formula will place the Front/Back edges.
You can then apply the algorithm from case a.
|
|
Step 4
|
The corners of the 3rd layer When all the corners have been processed, your cube will look like this:
|
Place the corners The algorithm will swap the corners (except the one in front of you on the right) in a clockwise direction.
Depending on your configuration, you should apply the algorithm 2 times maximum!!!
Corner orientation may vary. What matters is the location.
(The 2 colors of each corner must correspond to the 3 theoretical faces of the corner)
|
Orient the corners The algorithm will allow you to orient the 2 corners of your right upwards.
Depending on your configuration, you should apply the algorithm 2 times maximum!!!
Remember to orient your cube correctly so as to avoid performing the algorithm more than necessary, that is to say not necessarily the 3rd layer at the top.
