ADVERSEWORDLE DEEP DIVE

Safe to say, I’ve figured this one out. I’ve explained the strategy in the details panel below, and then blurred out the best answers, so you can pick your level of spoilage.

Summary

I fluffed the adwordle because I forgot how to spell LIGHT, but redid it to see if the strategy worked and, yeah, it’s good for 11, if your brain is working.

In summary, there is one pattern that towers over all others in the English language, with 17 words ending in that pattern. There are about 10, including _IGHT, which have 13 words ending in that patter. There is one pattern XX_XX, which also has 13. In sum:

Pattern Max Ambiguity Best Guess
_XXXX 17 _ILLS
X_XXX 9 S_OOT
XX_XX 13 CO_ED
XXX_X 11 CHA_S
XXXX_ 10 SCAL_

The best ending is so much better than the other options, you should probably always aim for it, unless maybe the first guess matches one of the 13-score patterns, which are CO_ED, _ACKS, _AILS, _ANES, _ATER, _EARS, _IGHT, _INES, _OLLY, _OWED.

Thanks! I think I just like that puzzle more for some reason. Seems more satisfying, less arbitrary.

Right, your strategy makes sense, especially since _ILLS was the pattern I saw somebody use to demonstrate why it takes six words to win Wordle.

The _ILLS have it! …may go back to my usual strategy though. Not quite as precise, but more interesting to see the bot fumble through it.
