Stay systematic
On hard grids, discipline beats inspiration. Pencil every candidate, work the remaining sums on partly-filled runs, and trust the eliminations. When the obvious moves run out, the 45 rule for enclosed blocks is your next tool. A contradiction you reach by a careful what-if is information, not a dead end.
Cleared it? The expert grids are waiting. Need a breather? Medium is one step back.
