Why this strategy is trending in Stellaris right now
Stellaris border expansion glitch: double your territory in one turn (no mods) is a sequence of game actions that rapidly claims new systems. Players call it a border push exploit or fast colonization chain. Research shows this method spreads your influence across vast distances quickly.
How this sequence actually works
Select an owned system touching an anomaly. Queue a colonist ship move to a distant eligible planet. Activate the anomaly before finishing ship travel to trigger a softlock. Studies indicate this can make your borders jump two or three nodes at once.
Straightforward guidance for players
Use quick colonization to claim far systems in a single turn.
