Corner already in the slot

Goal

Put the pair in its slot when the corner is already in the front right slot and the edge is on top.

How to recognize it

The corner is in the bottom layer, right in the front right slot. Look at its white sticker: down (correct), front or right.

Then turn the top until the edge's side color matches a center. Whether the edge sits above the front or the right center tells you the case.

How to hold the cube

White cross on the bottom, the empty slot at the front right. The edge is at the top front or the top right.

The main idea

The corner in the slot has to come out first. The first half lifts the corner to the top. The second half is a case from F2L basics.

For example, in R U R' U' R U R' the first half R U R' lifts the corner. The second half U' R U R' is Insert from the right after one U'.

Check before moving on

The front right slot is done, and the cross and other slots are untouched.

Common mistakes

• Mixing up a white sticker facing front with one facing right. Look at the corner before you start.
• Skipping the U at the start of an algorithm. It puts the pieces where the algorithm expects them.
• Doing y' and forgetting that the slot is now at the back right.
• Turning D and knocking the cross out of line.
