How to recognise it

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

Its inverse is another case

Do the Gc algorithm backwards, D' R U R' D U' R2 U' R U' R' U R' U R2, and you are solving Gd.

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