How to recognise it

Headlights with an adjacent colour between them: hold them on the left. The only block is the front edge with the front-right corner.

Its inverse is another case

Do the Ga algorithm backwards, D R' U' R D' U R2 U R' U R U' R U' R2, and you are solving Gb.

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