Step 5- The Yellow Corners

This step is easy because there is only one sequence. The only real problem is finding out what way to hold the Rubik's Cube because there are so many combinations. Luckily, I have broken them down into three main categories. The only sequence for this step is this: R, U, r, U, R, U, U, r. The first combination you could have is that you have the yellow cross and no other combination on the top face. For this you have to hold it so that the front face doesn't have any yellow on it. Once you have it like this, use the sequence. The next combination is that you have the yellow cross and you have one yellow corner piece on the upper face. To hold the cube correctly for this combination, you have to hold it so that the corner piece on the upper face is in the left corner closest to you. When you have it like this, you can use the sequence. The final combination is that you have the cross and two yellow corners on the upper face. If you have it this, hold it so that one of the yellow corners is in the back left corner of the upper face. When you have it like this, you can use the sequence. After you do the sequence one to three times, you should have a whole face of yellows. Now your cube should match the picture, and you can start orienting the yellow corners!
