Both on Top — U Stickers Match

F2L 17 — Right up · edge front, right on top

The corner sits above the slot, the right colour on top and white facing right. The edge sits front, the right colour on top.

Recognition — the cube as you hold it, slot at the front-right. Only the corner and edge belonging to that slot are coloured, so this is the shape to learn to spot.

Algorithm

5 moves. Hold the cube with the cross on the bottom and the slot you are filling at the front-right.

Setup / recognition

Apply this scramble to a solved cube to reach the F2L 17 case so you can practise it on demand:

One of the 41 basic cases. Category: Both on Top — U Stickers Match.

About this case

F2L 17 is one of the F2L cases — the pairing step of CFOP, where a white corner and its matching middle-layer edge go into a slot together. The corner sits above the slot, the right colour on top and white facing right. The edge sits front, the right colour on top. Solve it and one of the four slots is done; four of these and the first two layers are finished, leaving only OLL and PLL.

Do not learn this as a flashcard before you understand it. Every F2L case reduces to hide the corner, set the edge, rejoin them — the algorithm above is just the fastest way to say that for this particular position.

Easy to confuse with

These cases place the pair almost identically — they are the ones you will misread under time pressure. Drill them together:
