Equality Cages 140: Cold Arrows by gUBBLOR https://link.sudoku-sleuth.com/EqualityCages140

Rules:

Normal Sudoku rules apply. Place the digits 1 through 9 in each empty cell. Digits must not repeat within the same row, column, or box.

Equality cages: Cages must have an equal number of low (1,2,3,4) and high (6,7,8,9) digits AND an equal number of even (2,4,6,8) and odd (1,3,7,9) digits. Equality cages can never contain 5. Digits may not repeat in a cage.

Cold arrows: A blue arrow points toward a cell N distance away that has a value less than N, where N is the digit in the arrow's cell. For example, if R2C9 would be a 6, then R2C3 would be 5 or lower.
