Best plays from execs
| Word | Letters | Base points |
|---|---|---|
| execs | 5 | 14 |
| exsec | 5 | 14 |
| exec | 4 | 13 |
| exes | 4 | 11 |
| xc | 2 | 11 |
The X is worth 8 points here, so the best plays all use it. Place it on a double or triple square before spending points elsewhere.
The repeated E gives you flexibility: use one copy now and hold the other as a hook or crossing letter.
The X (8 points) is where the points are. Park it on a double or triple letter square first, then build around it; the small words can wait until the premium squares are used up.
Lead with EXECS for 14 points if a premium square is free. If not, EXSEC keeps the high tile in play without leaving you short on vowels for the next draw.
