A Wordle Tip for This Pattern

The first box is the biggest unknown, and O and E are the strongest openers to test. After that, the third box is the next best place to spend a guess, with A the most likely letter. The fixed V and E do a lot of the work, so use your guesses on the three open boxes rather than on those two letters.

In Scrabble, V is worth four points and E is worth one point. Knowing words such as EVADE, EVOKE and OVATE helps you use both tiles quickly when they land on your rack.
