The corner is on top with white facing up, and the edge is on top too. Turn white to the side, then insert the pair.
Goal
Put the pair in its slot when the corner is on top with its white sticker facing up, and the edge is on top too.
How to recognize it
The corner at the top front right shows white on top. Its other two colors are on the front and the right.
Look at the color on top of the edge:
- It matches the corner's right color: the algorithm needs no cube turn.
- It matches the corner's front color: the algorithm starts with
y'. It is the mirror case.
Then see where the edge is to pick the exact case.
How to hold the cube
White cross on the bottom, the empty slot at the front right. Turn the top until the corner is at the top front right.
The main idea
With white facing up, the corner cannot go in yet. The first half turns the corner so white faces sideways, for example with R U2 R'. The second half is a case from .
For example, in R U2 R' U' R U R' the first half is R U2 R'. The second half U' R U R' is 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.
