Five & Friends Gone Fishing
(Eingestellt am 10. Februar 2023, 19:34 Uhr von Nebuzaradan)
Each digit 1-9 appears at most once in each row, column, and box. Three of those digits (including the digit 5) do not appear in the puzzle at all.
Cells separated by a black circle contain digits in a ratio of EITHER 1:2 OR 1:3. All possible black circles are given.
Grey lines indicate palindromes, and normal little killer rules apply.
I first submitted this puzzle to zetamath's fiveless challenge.
Lösungscode: Last row, left to right

Nice little puzzle - I'm a fan of ones with negative constraints.
I didn't see any issue with the lk as others noted, I found it made the disambiguation quick at the end (I coloured first)

mrgadget, AstralSky, thank you both for trying the puzzle! I double-checked: the puzzle is not broken, and the LK clue is indeed necessary. (This also matches what zetamath found when streaming it.)

And yeah..Puzzle is fine without the LK, but broken with the LK.

Wait there is a LK clue?
I solved without using the LK clue...XD

The little killer clue is impossible.
