How to recognise it

A W, like stairs: back-left corner, back edge, right edge and front-right corner. The front-left corner's yellow faces left.

Its inverse is another case

Do the 36 algorithm backwards, F' L F L' U' L' U' L U L' U L, and you are solving 32.

That's why CubeDojo never scrambles 36 that way: it builds a random state with the case fixed, so you practise 36 and not 32.
