Thank you! At last someone who explains it in an understandable way. May x, y and z be aligned also for this technique to work?
Glad it was helpful! Hang in there as you practice and learn.
I've tried it and it worked, but I don't know if it always does
if xyz are aligned (you mean in the same row/column?) I think that would be a naked triple...
Thanks mr Robin for your awesome techniques
My pleasure! Please tell others about my site. Robin
Wow this is key! Finally finished my Grand Master Sudoku with this trick.
Congratulations. the more you know and spot things the better solver you will become. Hang in there. Robin

I was addicted long ago, and I may have spoke too soon. I’m still struggling with some of the difficult puzzles. Granted I’m in a dollar store sudoku book so the puzzles may be done poorly. I still have more of your videos to check out next weekend! Maybe I’ll get through these hard puzzles yet. So far all the other tips you’ve given were logic I was already using, just didn’t have a name for them. Thanks so much!
Thanks for clear explanation of XYZ wings

Robin ,, this is awesome ,,,, but I couldn't find a tutorial or lesson where you used it to resolve a real puzzle . It isn't also at the Index of strategies . Could you tell me if I missed one ? Thanks
You'll find it if you go to my Channel page and go through the tutorials. If you go to my web page (see below.)It may help. Robin
@@SudokuGuy Robin I reviewed again the index and for xyz wing you have only tutorial #42 . Maybe the index is outdated . Please help. Thanks
Awesome one.
Thank you! Cheers! much to learn as you look at more advanced tutorials.
It’s a bent triple?
Seems easier to visualise than xyz wing
Yes
Absolutely! Thanks for this insight😊.
Quite an interesting technique! Great explanation.
Thank you! Cheers! Jumkmail folder. (neat name)

Can the Y and Z be the same two numbers? For example pivot x=2,3,4, y= 2,4 can z also be a 24 or must it be 4,3? Second question can y and/or z have more than two numbers?
Hello Stuart. Yes they could. and generally the pivot is the only one that can have 3 numbers.
Very Good

Unless I missed it you did not give the logic behind this. I prefer to take each of the cells in turn which have a coresponding number to the Pivot cell and look at the effect of making that number true and so forth. If the result shows conflict then that is NOT the number.
It's very hard to describe somethings but JB below says it I think.
Thanks for your comment James
@@SudokuGuy So what is the logic behind this please? For me this is a vital point!
So can the y and z numbers be the same? In other words, if x is 234, can you and z both be 23?
Sorry no. I may have misunderstood your comment. Perhaps you could send me a diagram of this.
@@SudokuGuy where can I send it to?
Thank youuu

So basically an xyz wing is a bent triple or 3x3.
Yes
It's takes long time to finish..
Yes it does. For very difficult puzzles, because you need to know many technqiues and patterns to look for.
Hello!
Hi
I still cannot master this :(
Sorry to hear that. Please explain more. Perhaps it would be better for you to go to earlier videos. For a list go here.
