Grampus strategy starts with choosing when to build by ones and when to build by twos.

Core Grampus tips

• Decide whether a column should support one-step or two-step building based on the cards you can already see nearby.
• Reserve cells are best used to complete a rank chain, not just to postpone a decision.
• Watch the seeded foundation ranks so tableau moves keep feeding those exact progressions.
• Do not mix build rhythms randomly across the board if it leaves several columns needing the same missing rank.
• When a move could serve either foundation or tableau setup, prefer the line that keeps both step sizes available longer.

Best early priority

The first few turns should clarify which ranks are naturally clustering together. Once you see that pattern, build your columns to support it instead of fighting it.

Common mistake

The usual Grampus mistake is switching between one-step and two-step plans without enough structure, which leaves a board full of almost-usable cards.
