Opening Strategy & Walkthrough
1. Initial Border Sweep
Clear the top ring and outer fluke tips. The central shank clears middle.
2. Key Blocker Obstacle
The stock bar across the top shank blocks vertical movement.
3. General Arrow Logic Rule
An arrow leaves the board only when every cell between its head and the outer edge is clear of non-removed arrows. Removing one arrow unlocks the lanes behind it.
