How to recognise it

White on top, corner above the slot; the edge is on the left, its top colour matching the corner's front sticker.

Its inverse is another case

Do the 20 algorithm backwards, R' F R F2 U2 F U, and you are solving 2.

That's why CubeDojo never scrambles 20 that way: it builds a random state with the case fixed, so you practise 20 and not 2.
