'''OLL''' (short for [[Orientation]] of the [[Last Layer]]) is a last-layer step for 2x2 (see [[OLL (2x2x2)]]) and 3x3 that orients all last-layer corners and edges in one step. It is the first last-layer step in many speedsolving methods, including the [[Fridrich Method]]. OLL is usually followed by [[PLL]].

== Terminology ==
'''Dot OLL'''s refer to the OLL cases with no edges oriented correctly, so named because the center sticker forms a lone dot of the last-layer color. These cases are typically longer and harder to execute than others and are sometimes avoided. For example, cubers who have not learned full OLL can use [[partial edge control]] to avoid these cases altogether. Even some cubers who know full OLL avoid these cases for [[one-handed solving]].

=OLL Algorithms=
The areas shaded in yellow represent the oriented pieces on the top layer. You can tell if a piece is oriented by looking at the top color of the piece in relation to the top center of the cube. If the piece is oriented, the two colors will be the same.

The bars sticking off to the side of an unshaded piece represent where the [[sticker]] that needs to be on top is.

Parentheses in an algorithm represent the Pre-AUF of the OLL. They are not explicitly part of the algorithm itself and are only used with respect to the images.

==All edges flipped correctly==
This subgroup, '''OCLL''' (also '''OLL-C''') is used in methods which have oriented the [[LL]] edges earlier in the solve, such as [[ZZ]]. Solving the '''OCLL''' is also the second part of the [[2-look OLL]].

While commonly recommended to be [https://speedsolving.com/wiki/index.php?title=Partial_edge_control avoided], these are still memorized and used by solvers if the cost of slowing down the speed of the last F2L pair is too much. [https://youtu.be/-EtVbFmPM4w?si=fR3ln4ACU0Amk5C7]

'''OLL''' (short for [[Orientation]] of the [[Last Layer]]) is a last-layer step for 2x2 (see [[OLL (2x2x2)]]) and 3x3 that orients all last-layer corners and edges in one step. It is the first last-layer step in many speedsolving methods, including the [[Fridrich Method]]. OLL is usually followed by [[PLL]].

== Terminology ==
'''Dot OLL'''s refer to the OLL cases with no edges oriented correctly, so named because the center sticker forms a lone dot of the last-layer color. These cases are typically longer and harder to execute than others and are sometimes avoided. For example, cubers who have not learned full OLL can use [[partial edge control]] to avoid these cases altogether. Even some cubers who know full OLL avoid these cases for [[one-handed solving]].

=OLL Algorithms=
The areas shaded in yellow represent the oriented pieces on the top layer. You can tell if a piece is oriented by looking at the top color of the piece in relation to the top center of the cube. If the piece is oriented, the two colors will be the same.

The bars sticking off to the side of an unshaded piece represent where the [[sticker]] that needs to be on top is.

Parentheses in an algorithm represent the Pre-AUF of the OLL. They are not explicitly part of the algorithm itself and are only used with respect to the images.

{{Algnote}}

 {{OLL}}

==All edges flipped correctly==
This subgroup, '''OCLL''' (also '''OLL-C''') is used in methods which have oriented the [[LL]] edges earlier in the solve, such as [[ZZ]]. Solving the '''OCLL''' is also the second part of the [[2-look OLL]].

{{OCLL}}

==No edges flipped correctly==
{|border="0" width="100%" valign="top" cellpadding="3"
While commonly recommended to be [https://speedsolving.com/wiki/index.php?title=Partial_edge_control avoided], these are still memorized and used by solvers if the cost of slowing down the speed of the last F2L pair is too much. [https://youtu.be/-EtVbFmPM4w?si=fR3ln4ACU0Amk5C7]
