CFOP
F2L | First 2 Layer
A beginner method for solving the first two layers of the cube by pairing and inserting corner-edge pieces simultaneously.
AF2L | Advance First 2 Layer
Enhances basic F2L with algorithms and finger tricks for faster corner-edge pairing and insertion.
OLL | Orientation Last Layer
A CFOP step to orient the last layer pieces so the top face is a single color.
PLL | Permutation Last Layer
Rearranges oriented last layer pieces into their correct positions, completing the CFOP method.
ANTI PLL | Anti Permutation Last Layer
Algorithms for specific last layer permutations encountered after F2L and OLL, allowing for quick resolutions.
Advanced
COLL | Corner Last Layer
An advanced technique that orients edges and corners of the last layer in one step for streamlined solving.
CMLL | Corner Last Layer
Focuses on orienting and positioning corner pieces of the last layer simultaneously for efficiency.
EO | Edge Orientation
Ensures last layer edges are correctly oriented before final permutations, crucial for efficient solves.
ELL | Edge Last Layer
Focuses on orienting last layer edges without affecting corners, done after solving the first two layers.
Variations
WV | Winter Variation
An advanced F2L method introducing additional pairing strategies to improve solving speed in competitions.
SV | Summer Variation
Similar to Winter Variation, enhances F2L efficiency with alternative solving patterns for competitive cubing.
SBLS | Second Block Last Layer
Solves the last layer using the completed first two layers for more efficient final strategies.
CLS | Corner Last Layer
Positions last layer corners strategically after the first two layers for streamlined cube completion.
FRUF | Front Right Up Front
Common algorithm notation for executing specific moves essential for F2L and OLL.
