Trickiest clues
Bottle isn't locked by the Plain/Striped rule alone
The Bottle clue only bans Plain and Striped umbrellas. The real anchor is finding the Stormy umbrella and then placing the Bottle on that one. Use the clue progress and filled cells to avoid guessing.
Combined cards are one answer
Occupant cells can hold pairs like Pirate/Soldier or Cat/Sailor, and the accessory cell can hold Lantern/Flag. Treat each pair as a single combined card instead of trying to split it across two umbrellas.
Final check
Level 172 is a clean example of locking the rare clues first. The Gold pole, Misty alien, and Stormy polka-dot umbrella give firm anchors, while the rest of the grid is filled by elimination. The paired occupant cards look unusual but should be treated as single answers. Watching the clue progress counter tells you when the next deduction is ready.
