Part 1: Intro

-- The Relative Cross

Part 2: F2L (First Two Layers)

-- Algorithms:

* Corner Into/Out of Bottom Layer: R U R'

* Pair RIght: R' F R F'

Part 3: F2L (First Two Layers)

-- Algorithms:

* Pair Left: L F' L' F

Part 4: OLL (Orientation of the Last Layer)

-- Top Cross (Edge OLL)

-- Solid Color on Top (Corner OLL)

-- Algorithms:

* Bar: F R U R' U' F'

* L: F U R U' R' F'

* Sune: R U R' U R U2 R'

* Antisune: R U2 R' U' R U' R'

Part 5: PLL (Permutation of the Last Layer)

-- Corners PLL

-- Edge PLL

-- Conclusion

-- Algorithms:

* Corner PLL: R' F R' B2 R F' R' B2 R2

* H-Perm (Opposite Edges / Plus): M2 U M2 U2 M2 U M2
