We have had a couple of BrainBashers puzzles recently that some folks seemed to enjoy. Here is the Super Hard code for today. It starts off fast and, for me, had a couple of advanced moves although the character of the puzzle seemed to strongly suggest possible solutions; no big suprises. Overall it is a typical BrainBasher SH.
I hope you will have a BUGing good time if you try it.

Very nice puzzle!
After initial basics, I came across ... (in sequence)
x-wing (2) rows 1 and 9
xy-wing 24-45-25 box 9 col 9
xy-wing 78-79-89 row 3 col 8
xy-wing 23-34-24 box 1 row 2
Instead of that last xy-wing, one could use the BUG+1 ... |

A w-wing (34), then an xy-wing (789) did it for me.

I also started with the x-wing, then the second xy-wing followed by the BUG+1 to complete the puzzle. It would seem the additional xy-wing you found was not useful/needed.
Glad it was enjoyable ........
