How to recognise it

A small lightning bolt: the back and left edges with the front-left corner. The front-right corner's yellow faces you.

Its inverse is another case

Do the 7 algorithm backwards, r U2 R' U' R U' r', and you are solving 6.

That's why CubeDojo never scrambles 7 that way: it builds a random state with the case fixed, so you practise 7 and not 6.
