my favorite tactics for quordle (and octordle since today) is combination of words "flick", "broth", "geans" and "dumpy". It reveals 20 letters out of 26 leaving uncommons like QWZXJ and V. Maybe you can try it some day :)
TUBES FLING CHAMP and WORDY do the same thing as well!!! Nice find. I wonder if there are more words like this.I've been creating lists of these 4-5 word combos.
Ah man. The STRESS towards the end 🤣 I did this octordle just before I watched the video. I was really worried you wouldn’t get NICER as you kept skipping over it as though it was a ‘k’ 🤣🤣
My favorite thing about Octordle is that it often leads to gambling for the last letter. The list of acceptable words is enormous. Vozhd, Wafqs, Mulct, Ennui or Pizza to name a few. Although the chances of it being an abstract word is slim to none, you never know when pizza might appear.
Hello wordle has a daily, but its only 5 letters. However, I honestly can't emphasize with all this daily word nonsense. I am into puzzles more so than words.
my strategy is using “wands,” “clock,” “fight,” “jumpy,” and “breve” as test words, but if i get enough letters to reasonably guess one of the eight, i do that instead, but it uses all the letters but z, x, and q. it also tests for double e, the most common double letter and a double c
@@aguythephilosopher Yeah, that is a great strategy... however for me, it kind of takes the fun out of solving the puzzle! And vozhd and waqfs dont really seem like words even though they are. Thats why I use TUBES FLING CHAMP and WORDY, and I may try this guys suggestion!
@@huntzzio yeah it does save you a guess but using waqfs and vozhd like a 95% efficient way to beat wordle, quordle, or octordle (I don’t use it for wordle though). You’re right when you say the fun is sucked out though
i think the logic of common vs uncommon letters is like guessing strategies in guess who which in hindsight is kind of similar to this(guessing based off a limited knowledge pool) if you guess narrow, you have a low acceptance result but if you do, you score big but in broad guesses, you have a high acceptance rate, but it doesnt give you that much information
Hey, really like your content! As constructive criticism, on these longer videos, it might be good to lower the background music volume a bit, it muffles your voice, and your commentary is very good!
Thanks for the feedback. I've actually debated whether to keep the background music on the longer videos. Maybe have some music at the beginning and then fade it out or something?
Octurdle is actually pretty easy. As your 4 first guesses, try and use words that cover most of the alphabet. For example, 'rough', 'tales', 'picky' and 'demon'. Then you should have enough information to guess atleast 1 out of the 8 of them. After each guess, you get more information and should be able to find another one that you can guess until you've guessed all 8 ( with 1 guess left over in case you make a mistake). I stopped playing it because it became too formulaic
Here's my strategy for octordle: all letters except q can be checked with chunk, waltz, gymps, fjord, vibex after each check if a word is obvious, if yes, use that, if not continue with another word, works every time
If you want great starting words for Octordle start with "pound, fight, reams, and lucky" The only letters those don't get are "qwjzxvb" most of which wont show up in a lot of words
I'd like to see you attempt hardmode rules on Octordle. Obviously it's not possible for each, so you would have to pick one of the eight to conform to.
Played a few games are watching this video and it is really fun! I always started with "pilot" and "gamer" and "husky" as third if I didn't get something after the first two. I hope you will do more of this although it doesn't fit in shorts. It's really entertaining to watch and guess along. You definitely just won a new subscriber! PS: If you want you could try and use these three starting words as challenge.
I started with audio and I got audio first try and I got so happy!! I got 8/8 but I was really stuck with amble. I also love your puzzle videos, they are always so fun to watch after I do the daily challenges.
When you were searching for the best guess for that fourth last row, I was shouting EGRET!! but you didn't hear me lol. Still wouldn't have helped with that pesky letter C...
Niger in English is pronounced "nai-jer"(or juh, in British English), but since it is a French-speaking country the proper pronunciation is "nee-ZHARE" like you were saying most of the time...

Glent, brick, waqfs, vozhd, jumpy, this leaves you one guess per word
@@jeffcatgreeb7262 I just tried that, it works so well! Thanks for that, I think I might use it from now on
Just tried that on the infinite octordle, lead to 5 correct guesses instantly just from how many greens and yellows i got!
@@jeffcatgreeb7262 I have a streak of 13 in the original because of that
TUBES FLING CHAMP and WORDY do the same thing as well!!! Nice find. I wonder if there are more words like this.I've been creating lists of these 4-5 word combos.
Watching him miss number four being completely solved was so frustrating lol
exactly my thoughts
Based off the logic of using “not as” common letters, try starting with Fancy!
That C would have been super helpful on this one
Maybe rhyme?
@@StroSolves how about locks?
What about xylem
Title: Trying a fancy new strategy
Ah man. The STRESS towards the end 🤣
I did this octordle just before I watched the video. I was really worried you wouldn’t get NICER as you kept skipping over it as though it was a ‘k’ 🤣🤣
Now you have no other choice but to try Sedecordle with 16 words! Gotta amp up those numbers :D
NOOOOOO
Hour long video incoming
too bad there's no wordle with 32 words
Oh god
Thought it was 21 words but guess not
I was shouting nicer to you for a solid 10 minutes! Super glad you got there in the end! 😅
Was he intentional missing it for content?

Hey Scott, I think you should try Wordle2. It’s like regular Wordle, but with 6 letters
Could just do Hello Wordl which goes from 4 to 11 letters
@@eboone That's good, tho I like daily words, instead of resetting every reload.
So wordle2 is a good way to go.
Hello wordle has a daily, but its only 5 letters. However, I honestly can't emphasize with all this daily word nonsense. I am into puzzles more so than words.
@@simonwillover4175 It is a puzzle, tho an easy one.

There’s a better way to do that. Try glent, brick, jumpy, vozhd. & waqfs. That way, you use everything but the x!

At this point it isn't long before he goes to his backyard and starts doing hurdles
I used to run hurdles in high school... 🤔
For Octordle the best starting four are: adieu, storm, pluck and bhang in my opinion. I got 6 octordles in a row using this
The objective best are
CHAMP
FLING
WORDY
TUBES
(No repeated letters and uses 20/26 most common alphabet letters, leaving only Q,J,K,Z,X,B)
I never lose Quordle, Octordle or anything higher than that with that starting combo
When you forgot the letter C existed I thought we were gonna finally see you fail a puzzle
But it is your superior puzzle abilities we are talking about so I was wrong lol
I was screaming "NICER!!!!" for like 2 minutes.
My Strat on Octordle is to go for whatever word has the most grays so I can knock out as many letters as possible
Not a bad idea

I was so afraid when he said “N, I, Something, E, R”
yeh he was really avoiding it
Been waiting for this one :) love your videos and you should try globle next
Or dordle and lewdle
I was screaming “SERIF!!” about three mins in hahaha
I was screaming nicer ;)
You should try Squardle, it's so much fun!
its so weird seeing him not used to this, when nowadays scott can go crazy on multiple different wordles at once
Do sedecordle (16 words) and squardle (square wordle!)
Squardle is my favorite of all the wordle parodies
The website would be 100x better if it had the words side-to-side like you have on display. Right now it feels practically unusable.
Agree 1000%. The only way I could get it to work was to zoom out to 33% on my 4K monitor.
Not me staring at the screen yelling “piano”constantly until he guessed it hahahaha
Now you have to do Sedecordle! (I promise, it's fun!)
Octurdle is actually pretty easy. As your 4 first guesses, try and use words that cover most of the alphabet. For example, 'rough', 'tales', 'picky' and 'demon'.

wow i could not imagine trying to do this, i would just get overwhelmed. good job!
its actually easy! guess fjord, quick, nymph, waltz, and gybes and you will have all of the letters most of the time.
@@simonmccroskey906 well i feel like that might take the fun out of the game but i’ll try it. thank you!
Here's my strategy for octordle: all letters except q can be checked with chunk, waltz, gymps, fjord, vibex after each check if a word is obvious, if yes, use that, if not continue with another word, works every time
With octordle there is a button to set a widescreen and it could be easier
Self Imposed Quordle/Octordle: Same rules as Wordle hard mode and you have to solve them one at a time, in order
try starting with
WHINE
FROST
JUMPY
BLACK
this uses almost everything except d and g
so i like to follow up with DINGY sometimes as well
i kept shouting "nicer!! NICER!" in my head 😂 though good job! i could never do this
2:27 I love how the green letters spell ERP.
I was screaming "nicer" for sooo loooongggg, impressive work tho!!!
8:03 If you need to type in a word with U, about is a good one maybe.
I'm shocked 'nicer' falls below 'nixer' in your vocab... Only one I would have got (paused at 15') assuming I am right...
Nicer definitely doesn't fall below nixer, I just forgot that soft C was a thing 🤦♂️
This is what happens when you forget that the letter C exists.
You should try sedecordle and Dordle. 16 words in 21 guesses and 2 words in 7 guesses
01:28 doge: **squeaks**
I got 7 out of 8 cause I said Ample instead of Amble and didn’t have a guess left over for the last word, which was undue for me
I didn’t even realise I watched this for 20 minutes!
You should play SEDECORDLE. It is 16 words in 21 tries. I usually use Fling, Champ, Tubes, and Wordy. I use that for all but wordle and crosswordle
He guessed NINER before NICER, haha! That's ok, you're doing great regardless. Love your content.
15:30 I’ve been yelling _exact_ at my screen for like two minutes, and then I remembered _nicer_ is also a word.
5:02 I mean, bottom left right looks like Piano, what else could that o be at the end?
When you were doing the check with "exert" you could have guessed something like "treck" which would have eliminated and shown a lot of possibilities
He was so close to saying the n word so many times, he is a G for not slipping up 🤣
Octordle rescue can be incredibly challenging
I was screaming at him that nicer is a word but he did realise
If you want great starting words for Octordle start with "pound, fight, reams, and lucky"
The only letters those don't get are "qwjzxvb" most of which wont show up in a lot of words
Sedectordle is 16 wordles at once try it if you haven't
I'd like to see you attempt hardmode rules on Octordle. Obviously it's not possible for each, so you would have to pick one of the eight to conform to.
I saw nicer after you tried exert and I was so stressed out like « Noooo don’t type in Niger, look at the keyboard for other unused letters »
Try using these four words in your next Octordle video: SOUND, GRIFT, BLACK, HEMPY
I was losing my mind over nicer I’m ngl
Try out the Bloozy word game!
You should play sedecordle which is like octordle but times 2 aka 16 words. Its super fun
Try starting with sonar, that’s what I use
Played a few games are watching this video and it is really fun!
I always started with "pilot" and "gamer" and "husky" as third if I didn't get something after the first two.
I hope you will do more of this although it doesn't fit in shorts. It's really entertaining to watch and guess along.
You definitely just won a new subscriber!
PS: If you want you could try and use these three starting words as challenge.
Thanks for introducing me to this, Thanks!
I started with audio and I got audio first try and I got so happy!! I got 8/8 but I was really stuck with amble. I also love your puzzle videos, they are always so fun to watch after I do the daily challenges.
Request: Duotrigordle.
You should try polydle, you can pick as many words as you want
That exert was a life saver! Great thinking there 👍👍👍
When you were searching for the best guess for that fourth last row, I was shouting EGRET!! but you didn't hear me lol. Still wouldn't have helped with that pesky letter C...
You are such an underrated ytber
17:10 Ah yes, nicer isn't a word
Niger is pronounced with a hard “i” and soft “g” like “nigh” and the second part is like saying germ without the m
"human", "legit" and "sword" is my way to go.
Try “glent” “Brick” “Jumpy” “Vozhd” “waqfs” it shows all letters except X, and then u can guess
I was screaming nicer for so long
I loved knowing Audio was one of the answers, having done the puzzle prior
That was some good unintended dramatic irony. 😆
5:14 sus sounds
GYBES is a good guess
alright, time for sedecordle now! 😎
im still amazed at how smart you are and how you think so clearly
Try starting with Audio!
i usually start with soare and then improvise. i do use mirth as the second guess often
You should try wordle 2! Its just wordle with 6 letters you can play it on your shorts
You should try Heardle, Moviedle, and Herdle!!! Also my favorite starting word are Those, Drink, and Clump! I love your videos, keep it up! 😁🎥💜
My fave start for Octordle is
DARES
POINT
LUCKY
I was in so much anger when he was debating on using “Niger” and mentioned c and said “I don’t think any of these are a word.” I was screaming NICER
Avoiding L is great since it could be used as a forth starting word
Niger in English is pronounced "nai-jer"(or juh, in British English), but since it is a French-speaking country the proper pronunciation is "nee-ZHARE" like you were saying most of the time...
Scott was so uncomfortable with the N-word lmao
Yeah so funny seeing him trying to find some other word
This was a banger and hard keep it up 👍
I guess STEAM, PROUD, & CLING on Octordle and can get all 8 almost every time from just those 3, aka a consistent 11-guess round
The holy Trinity of starting words are ratio, lungs and pecky. I have won every single time
Tubes, fling, champ, wordy is a really good start. I don’t use it for wordle because it takes the fun out of it but for quordle and octordle I use it.
Wordling I have as an app on my phone. It has a 4, 5, and 6 letter word every day.
Says 4 Is easy. But I say it is the hardest.
The other day I got all 8 words in 10 guesses, got them in 3456789 and 10th. Took me many many tries and also got lucky
Very close one! Even I got nervous towards the end. Love watching these!
I think a good suggestion would be starting with some of the words from the previous day since there is plenty to choose from
I also was reading nicer as niker and thought that word doesn't exist. Until you said nicer properly, lol
Try starting with irate it works for me every time
17:23 try not to get canceled challenge
"White man has a meltdown over the pronunciation of Niger and ends up using a nicer word" hehe
You should try Sedocrdle (16 words at once)
I just started doing this earlier this day because I saw someone say to do it in your comments and it is really fun
