There are pieces of today's Wordle that are easy to find, but other parts use rarer letters that are harder to piece together. Smart players might figure out the trick in the puzzle, but beginners are prone to making simple mistakes that could kill their streak. By using the right clues from a good starting word, these problems become less relevant to players of all types.

Many veterans prefer to use Wordle’s hard mode as it prevents them from using random guesses and is a bit more strategic. This mode doesn’t let players reuse confirmed letters in other spots, which will prevent you from wasting your attempts on random words. Using this mode in tandem with some hints may just let you solve today’s Wordle without cheating.
