Winning Strategy Tips
- Consonant Clusters: Look for common blends like CH, SH, TH, ST, and TR at the start or end of your words.
- Vowel Rotations: Keeping track of used vowels ensures you do not waste turns on invalid guesses.
- Letter Frequency: Prioritize placing high-frequency tiles like E, A, and R in the central column slots.
