This one was bonkers. Would have literally never solved it without this video. Never even heard of a hidden quad lol

Love the way you can spot that quad. I had to go: Center Pencil Mark Mad : and then it became more obvious. 35:19 for me. Pretty exciting to get a hard one done.

Spent 30 minutes looking before coming here. I don’t think I ever would have found that R9 quad. Thanks!

I was having a hard time solving it, but you literally bright the entire game, congrats.

36:55 😭 I got so stuck but the way R9 resolved was key. There's no way I would've seen that myself, thanks Rangsk!!

Never would have found/thought of the quad. I followed you for about half the puzzle (maybe a little more?) and then just pencilled the rest and was able to solve it on my own...but needed you for the beginning!!! Thanks! I learn SO much watching these!!!

Couldn't get the quad without watching your video. Thanks for the explanation!

Nice solve. Took me 33 minutes even though I found the quad and didn't get stuck. For some reason it felt like it took twice as many steps as usual to solve this one!

looking for pairs and triples, didn't think about looking for a quad. First one in a long time I needed your help sir. Tks for all the help.

attempt 1: 78:36... it broke me and i needed to resort to bifurcation and desperate guessing attempt 2: 34:40... much better, but still slow going, and i still don't know what i missed :(

16:37 for me. Finally, a true hard puzzle. Very good!

27 min and I still had to watch at 7:25 mark for that quad to unlock it!

Genius! When I grow up, I want to be as smart as you. Oh wait. I AM grown up. There is no hope. 😭 New subscriber. So glad I found your channel.

That quad was key. I was stuck until you found it. Wow tough one to start the week!
@asenior8974 ай бұрын
I think the hidden/naked quad _is_ a necessary step, and I had to pencil the entire puzzle before I spotted the naked quad :( Definitely one of the harder ones.

It has been [ 0 ] days since I was able to solve one of these without looking at how Rangsk does it.

I spent forever on this and never spotted the quad! I only solved it after forcing chains. R9C1 was a 4 no matter what I did so that cracked it for me
@Vlassakis224 ай бұрын
I spotted that quadruple almost immediately and it still took me 40 minutes to do it.

52:55…. I finally gave up and came to see your video at 42 minutes in. That stupid quad 😭
@big_red010274 ай бұрын
I didn't finish this one. I took three hacks at it and missed the quad and that apparently quite helpful triple in box 3.

I found another solution with the same result (7.18), R8C2 have candidates 69, R8C3 = 89 You have a XY wing not used with R2C1 , R9C1 and R8C2, when you fill in R8C2 with a 9 then R8C3 is 8, R8C9 is 8, R7C4 is a 8 and in box 7 row 9 must have a 6 then R9C1 is 4, when you fill R8C2 with a 6 then R9C1 is also a 4

must be R9C8 instat of R8C9
