Step 6- The Last Layer Corner Orientation
Now, we're almost done with the Last Layer, as well as the cube itself.
For your information, your cube could become solved at any moment now,
because there is a small possibility that some of the steps are already
done. Just keep an eye on it.
This step should be done semi-intuitively, but with some specific and
important steps. Your cube is currently in one of eight possible
situations in regard to the Last Layer corners. One of those eight
positions is where all of the Last Layer corners are completed, which
can be easily identified by checking if the entire yellow "side" is
completed. In that case, skip to the next and final step, Step 7.
There are seven other more likely situations. I have listed two below.
Notice that three corners are twisted counter-clockwise for the
Situation 1 algorithm, while three corners are twisted clockwise for
the Situation 2 algorithm. Any of the five other situations (I won't
take the time to show you them) can be solved in one of four ways:
- By Performing the Situation 1 algorithm twice.
- By Performing the Situation 2 algorithm twice.
- By Performing the Situation 1 algorithm, then the
Situation 2 algorithm.
- By Performing the Situation 2 algorithm, then the
Situation 1 algorithm.
You will have to logically decide which way to solve the Last Layer
corners. Don't worry, if you decide to do the wrong combination,
nothing will happen to the work that you performed in the previous
steps, unless you mess up the algorithm! This can be a learning
experience, although there is only one step left.
