How to recognise it

Corner above the slot with white facing right; the edge is on the left, its top colour matching the corner's top.

Its inverse is another case

Do the 6 algorithm backwards, R' U' F R F' R' U R, and you are solving 1.

That's why CubeDojo never scrambles 6 that way: it builds a random state with the case fixed, so you practise 6 and not 1.
