My first attempt at setting, I hope you can give me some feedback :)
Rules
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
Killer cages: Digits in cages must sum to the number in the top-left corner and cannot repeat. Additionally, no two cages may sum to the same total.
Renban (pink): Every renban line contains a set of consecutive digits in any order, without repeats.
Positive diagonal (blue): Digits cannot repeat along the positive diagonal.
Negative diagonal (red): Exactly 1 of the digits along the negative diagonal does NOT repeat. The rest appear at least twice along the negative diagonal.
Center Kropki: Two digits diagonally connected by a black dot are in a 1:2 ratio.

I really loved the concept here and the path. It seems harder than a two-star, but that might just be me.

Thank you for this fun puzzle, brandwagen! I suggest requiring only one row or column as the solution code for future uploads.

Very nice! Cool break-in. The title did spoil it a bit though...
