Scorpion Solitaire strategy

Scorpion rewards decisive suited building and punishes piles that look movable but cannot be completed.

Keep suits together

Every clean connection brings a complete king-to-ace run closer.

Reveal before using the reserve

The three reserve cards are most helpful once the covered tableau has been improved.

Make empty columns count

Only a king-led tail can use an empty column, so create one with a destination ready.

Keep in mind

  • Build in suit.
  • Reveal first.
  • Time the reserve.
  • Prepare a king for empty space.
