When completing F2L, I have more difficulty when there is at least 1 corner piece at the bottom cos I tend to solve the cube looking down diagonally from the top so I observe things at the top portion better.
So when both pieces are at the top 2 layers I can solve them more easily, but when there is a piece at the bottom corner I may have problem and sometimes have to tilt the cube to look what color is at the bottom of that piece (for example to make sure the color is white (bottom color) instead of yellow (top color)). Or sometimes I have a problem if that piece is hiding in a back bottom corner.
The worst situation is when there is a piece at the bottom corner and the edge piece is at the 2nd layer as I don't know how to inituitively convert this to a basic case in 3 or 4 moves unlike other situations. Is there even such an algorithm?
Anyone has the same problem as me? How do you make it easier to solve the bottom corner piece situation?
