Wordle gets a lot easier with some strategic opening word choices. The basic strategy is to pick words eliminating RSTLNE early (the “wheel of fortune” strategy), as those are the most commonly used letters.
There’s also a more specific strategy aiming to win on the 3rd guess by maximizing common letters and placements using two predetermined opening guesses. “Clint” and “soare” were found to be the most optimal, but any combo on that list would be a very good pick.
I have very poor working memory so thinking about words, and trying to remember letters, and thinking about how long they are, all at once, kinda fries my brain pretty quickly 😅 but I have a much easier time with the lateral thinking and word reasoning of connections
I’ll keep your advice in mind if I give the wordle clones a shot, or am playing sometime in the future post-strike!
