Bad whales; whales are mirrors of each other.

Algorithms

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

Swap top whale head, held against slice with tail in UL, with full bottom whale in DR.

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!
