Rubik's Cube Solution Step 3: Orient Bottom Corners
Post by Blake
This next step is one of the most commonly misinterpreted steps in the entire solution so pay careful attention...
Next, you must orient the four corners. Compare the four corners on the bottom of your cube to these pictures. Disregard the non-corner pieces on the bottom of your cube. Skip this step if they are all oriented correctly. The whole point of comparing the bottom is to determine how to hold the cube for the next move. The black spots represent the bottom color of your cube. These are all the possible combinations of corner orientations. Figure out which one looks like the bottom corners on your cube. Now hold the cube so that it looks exactly like the way it does here. You may have to rotate it to get it to mat
Note: Remember that '2' means turn the indicated face twice. It does not matter which direction you turn it. It'll end up the same either way.
Now go back to the beginning of this step and keep on doing this until all four corners are oriented properly. If you do it right, the most you should have to do this process is three times. Sometimes you'll get it on the first try. Sometimes you may get lucky and can skip this step altogether.
Getting there:
On to step 4
