In Y, players have to link the three sides, and a corner links 2 edges. Similarly to edge templates in Hex there are corner templates in Y.

Red is trying to link right and bottom edges through a corner template. Any shaded hexes are not part of the template, and can be occupied by Blue.

One-stone corner templates

Two-stone corner templates
