5x5 Grid Tactics: Space Leverage and High-Tile Acceleration
Leverage Extra Space
Use the larger board to stage multiple pairs simultaneously. Keep the edge ordered while maintaining a two-row staging area.
Multi-Lane Staging
Develop two feeder lanes from the interior. Promote pairs only when the pipeline slot is ready to avoid contamination.
Acceleration Windows
- When three empties exist, chain-merge aggressively to jump tiers.
- After big merges, immediately restore order before spawning noise.
Practice: Alternate between conservative staging and short acceleration bursts. Track which balance yields higher peaks.
With space leverage and accelerated chains, 5x5 unlocks very high tiles. Play now.
