Beautiful construction. Agree such puzzles on 1* are a bad signal for beginners. You must bring a few skills to be able to solve this. 1.5*-2* for me. But a great puzzle thx.

Hardest rated 1× puzzle I've seen on LMD!
Unless I missed an easy break in..... The one I found was pretty brutal

Very nice.
While this wasn't hard per se, I think someone doing sudokus in from newspapers and dipping his toes into 1* puzzles at LMD might feel a bit overwhelmed with the break in.

Very nice, elegant, and a good introduction for someone uncertain about the constraint.

Very elegant construction. Approachable and uses a lot of the unique logic from the ESL constraint.
