AI Summary
This strategy guide focuses strictly on "Openers." It recommends words rich in common letters (R, S, T, L, N, E). It advises avoiding repeat letters in the first guess (e.g., don't start with "DATA"). It provides examples of strong openers like "STARE," "ROATE," and "AUDIO."
AI Highlights

- Consonant Heavy: STERN, TEARS (better for structure).
- The Golden Rule: 5 unique letters always.
The Best Letters to Hunt
E, A, R, I, O, T, N, S, L, C. These are the most common letters in English 5-letter words. Your opener should contain 3-5 of these.
Why "ADIEU" is Overrated
It finds vowels, but consonants decide the word structure. A word like STARE is statistically stronger.
