Setup / recognition

Apply this scramble to a solved cube to reach the OLL 53 case so you can practise it on demand:

Category: L Shape. This is one of the cases you recognise by the shape the top stickers form before the algorithm.

About this case

OLL 53 (L Shape 5) is an OLL case — the orientation step of CFOP. L Shape case — two adjacent edges oriented, no corners oriented. Once the last layer is fully oriented, the top face shows a single colour and you move on to PLL to permute the pieces into place.
