OBL: An Intuitive Guide

An explanation of OBL from a user's perspective.


Left Cut / Right Cut

Faces: Left Cut / Right Cut


Recognition Tips

Bad cuts; aligning birds breaks squareshape.

Algorithms

Best Alg: 1,0/-4,2/-3,0/4,1/3,0/2,-1/0,1

Preserve bird on bottom, send whale from top to form matching axe/axe; doing CO into 3E/3E is also decent.

Color Mirror Algs

This case is its own color mirror; use best alg above.

Other Algs

  • -2,0/0,3/-1,-4/1,4/3,0/-4,-1/0,1
  • -2,0/0,3/3,0/3,0/-1,-1/-3,0/-3,0/0,1



Related Cases

Parent Cases

Relatively useful cases that can be reached in one slice from this case.

Mirrors

Left/Right Mirror: When both the top and bottom face are swapped with their respective left/right mirrors.
Pseudo Mirrors: When only one face is left/right mirrored. Not a real mirror, but it looks like one; don't be tricked!
