Yellow face (OLL part 2)

Turn the four top corners so yellow faces up: the whole top turns yellow.

Find your case fast

Step 1
Count the corners with yellow on top: 0, 1 or 2. Tap that chip.
Step 2
Look at the yellow on the sides: which ones face each other, which face the same way.
Step 3
1 to 3 pictures are left. Turn U until the cube matches one, then do its formula.

Tap what you see on your cube. Pictures that do not match hide.

7 / 7 cases

Sune and Antisune are mirrors: both have 1 yellow corner on top, the side yellows turn opposite ways.
The names are shapes: H (two facing pairs), Pi (a pair and two legs), U (headlights), T, bowtie (diagonal corners).
Learn by corner count: 1 (Sune, Antisune), then 0 (H, Pi), then 2 (U, T, bowtie). 2 or 3 pictures at a time.
Many formulas are R U R' U and R U2 R' joined: get your hands used to those two pieces first.

Look at the 4 top corners: yellow on top, or on which side.

See the cases

The yellow cross is done. Now look only at the 4 top corners: is each one’s yellow on top, or on which side.
There are 7 pictures. Turn until the cube matches one, then do its formula. The first two (Sune) are the yellow-face step of the beginner method.
The names help: H, Pi, , T, bowtie: look at the yellow on the sides.
