How to play
You complete Knockout when every card reaches the foundation target while the profile's access, packet, and sequence restrictions remain satisfied. The engine evaluates the full position rather than relying on a visual shortcut or an unsupported solvability claim.
- Knockout opens from a versioned seeded position built for A stripped deck deals to three lanes and removes Clubs only; after every five deals the live lanes and remaining stock are shuffled together, for at most two rescue cycles. Its game ID, rules profile, and deal identity are stored together so restart recreates the same opening without a server request.
- Every Knockout action is checked against the current board, available material, and this defining restriction: A stripped deck deals to three lanes and removes Clubs only; after every five deals the live lanes and remaining stock are shuffled together, for at most two rescue cycles. Invalid, stale, or post-terminal actions leave the position unchanged.

Strategy tips
- A practical Knockout plan is to preserve several legal continuations around A stripped deck deals to three lanes and removes Clubs only; after every five deals the live lanes and remaining stock are shuffled together, for at most two rescue cycles. Use the deterministic hint to inspect one legal action, then compare how it affects the documented objective before committing.
- A common Knockout error is to ignore the boundary rule that A stripped deck deals to three lanes and removes Clubs only; after every five deals the live lanes and remaining stock are shuffled together, for at most two rescue cycles. Undo is useful for studying that decision, while restart deliberately preserves the original seeded position.
- Near the end of Knockout, recount the remaining obligations needed until every card reaches the foundation target while the profile's access, packet, and sequence restrictions remain satisfied. Check the boundary rule after every final placement or transfer because terminal status is enforced immediately.
