What is VLS algorithm?
VLS (Valk Last Slot) algorithms solve the final F2L slot and OLL at the same time, in the cases where you have a connected F2L pair. This selection of algorithms serves as an introduction to the full VLS algorithm set, and aims to highlight the most useful cases to know.

What is Coll in cubing?
COLL (short for Corners of Last Layer) is a 3x3x3 last layer substep in the CxLL group that solves (orients and permutes) the last layer corners while preserving the last layer edge orientation, leaving only edge permutation (EPLL).

What is the best Valk cube?
The Valk 3 has been on the market for a long time. It is widely considered as “The best 3×3 on the market” and it is used as a main for pros and beginners alike. It features squared off corners, excellent corner cutting, and has a satisfying hollow feel.
How many VLS algorithms are there?
There are a total of 432 algorithms, including mirrors.
Is full winter variation worth it?
For some cases, totally worth it. Most of the 1 corner cases, some of the 2 corner cases. Like others have said, as long as their easy to recognize quickly. However, especially for OH, it’s often better to just insert the pair and know that you’re going to get a COLL case instead.
