Front view
Find the single oriented top-layer corner, then use the direction of the three side-facing corner stickers to distinguish Sune from Anti-Sune. Do not rely only on the “fish” outline.

Sune: recognition, algorithms and execution trainer
Sune is one of the most important early OLL cases: short, common, easy to finger-trick and already part of a two-look OLL solution.

Algorithm
Recognition
Recognize Sune from several angles
Right view
From the right, the case looks compressed. Confirm the oriented corner and the nearest pair of matching side stickers before choosing the algorithm.
Back view
The top pattern is unchanged, but the useful headlights move relative to your view. Practice identifying the case without rotating to the favorite front.
Left view
Use this angle to compare the case directly with Anti-Sune. The chirality of the corner orientation is the decisive clue.
Algorithms
Primary and alternatives

Commutator alternative

Back-angle execution

R U2 R' U' R U' R'The setup below is the inverse of the primary algorithm. Apply it to a solved cube to create the exact training state used by the 3D player.
Finger tricks
Execute as one controlled phrase
- Start in a neutral home grip with the right thumb on the front and index ready for U.
- Execute R U R' as one relaxed trigger without squeezing the cube.
- Use the same right index for the second U, then R; prepare a two-finger U2 flick.
- Finish U2 R' and let the right hand return to home grip for PLL recognition.
Common mistakes
What usually breaks the case
- Confusing the mirrored Anti-Sune orientation after a U rotation.
- Resetting the index finger before U2 instead of using a fluid double flick.
- Turning the first R' with a whole-hand regrip and losing the starting grip.
- Watching the algorithm finish instead of moving the eyes to PLL side stickers.

Easy · recommended case #1
Learn immediately after the edge-orientation part of 2-look OLL. It is a high-frequency pattern and establishes the core R U trigger used in many later algorithms.

Quick answers
Frequently asked questions
Which OLL number is Sune?
Sune is commonly numbered OLL 27.
How do I tell Sune from Anti-Sune?
Use the chirality of the three unoriented corners and confirm side stickers, not only the top-face fish shape.
What is a good Sune execution time?
Use your repeatable average. The page shows a SupaKewber community value only after at least five users have recorded the case.
