2x2 - Ortega Method

Orient First Layer

Pick a colour and move all pieces so that the bottom face has that colour.

Case 1

Corner facing front. Move to bottom right corner facing down.

F' U' F

Case 2

Corner facing right. Move to bottom right corner facing down.

R U R'

Case 3

Corner facing up. Move to bottom right corner facing down.

U R2 U' R2

Orient Last Layer

Do the same for the top face with the opposite colour.

Case 1

F (R U R' U') F'

Case 2

(R U R' U') (R' F R F')

Case 3

F (R U') (R' U' R U) (R' F')

Case 4

(R U R' U) (R U2 R')

Case 5

(R U2 R' U') (R U' R')

Case 6

F (R U R' U') (R U R' U') F'

Case 7

R2 U2 R U2 R2

Permutate Both Layers

Move the pieces of both layers into their proper positions.

Case 1

(R U R' U') (R' F) (R2 U') (R' U' R U) (R' F')

Case 2

x2 (R U R' U') (R' F) (R2 U') (R' U' R U) (R' F')

Case 3

(F R U') (R' U' R U) (R' F') (R U R' U') (R' F R F')

Case 4

z2y (F R U') (R' U' R U) (R' F') (R U R' U') (R' F R F')

Case 5

(R2 U' R2) (U2 y) (R2 U' R2)

Case 6

(R U' R) F2 (R' U R')

Case 7

(L D' L) F2 (L' D L')

Case 8
