Uploaded March 2014 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago
Antoine discusses the different 3x3 last layer methods and how viable they are for one-handed solving.
Group A:
OLL/PLL: 57+21 = 78 algs
Orient the last layer, then permute the peices.
- Standard
- Decent algs
- Highly documented
sites.google.com/site/antoineccantin/oh/pll
CPEOLL/2GLL: 15 + 84 = 99 algs
Permute the corners and orient the edges, then orient the corners and permute the edges.
- Few CPEOLL algs, which are almost all good
- Not all that great recognition
- Quite finger-tricky
sites.google.com/site/antoineccantin/oh/cpeoll
OLLCP + EPLL: 336 + 4 = 340 algs
Orient and permute the corners and orient the edges, then permute edges.
- Ton of algs
- Many are meh for OH
- EPLL is super fast
Group B:
WV/PLL: 27 + 21 = 48 algs
Edges must be oriented: Insert the last slot while orienting corners, then permute the last layer.
- Not many algs
- Algs are pretty good
COLL/EPLL: 42 + 4 = 46 algs
Edges must be oriented: Orient and permute the corners, then permute the edges.
- Not all that many algs
- Quite documented
- Decent algs, and EPLL is awesome
sites.google.com/site/antoineccantin/oh/coll
ZBLL: 472 algs
Edges must be oriented: Orient and permute corners and permute edges.
- Ton of algs
- Relatively common
- Ton of algs
2GLL: 84 algs (60 without sunes)
Edges must be oriented and corners must be permuted: Solve corner orientation and permute edges.
- Many algs are really easy (combos of sunes)
- All R and U
- Quite finger-tricky
sites.google.com/site/antoineccantin/2gll
It is recommended to skim over every method, find the best parts and learn them.
