Arrow Sudoku Puzzle with a Twist: 0-8 numbers Edition! 

What a marvellous sudoku! I solved this puzzle after the contest and actually started with significant progress with the top right, but I errenously ruled out the possibility of double 8 = 16. Happily, the puzzle didn't break. You took everyone through the exact solve path by starting in the intended spot and from there, you can write many 678 triples and 78 pairs. I did spot the b1/b9 min-max logic but I had real trouble logically understanding the placment of 1 in r9c1 when I attempted to solve it on my twitch stream last night. Now, I absolutely understand after your perfect explanation. You can quickly resolve the puzzle by realising that there's a given 3 in c9, giving a 14 pair in r67c9 which quickly finishes the b3 arrows. As an aside, I also want to give you massive props once again for your simply stunning set-up for your inclusion sudoku. I've set quite a few quadruple/inclusion sudokus as it's 1 of my favourite variants and for me, your puzzle was absolutely the best inclusion sudoku I've ever seen and solved from here to Pluto; simply superb! :)))

Thank Ashish for the feature. I myself did not realize while setting that the digits in r6c2 and r8c4 can never be the same and also that they cannot be 4. Also, I did not realize that the digits at r3c5 and r5c7 cannot both be 8. These two steps made the sudoku a bit easier (although the puzzle can still be solved without using these observations).

Wow, a wonderful construction and great deductions! New variant for me.

Fantastic
