Best Play Here
If you're holding all nine tiles, lightning is your only bingo, worth 14 base points before board bonuses. Missing a letter or two? glinting, lighting, and nighting are solid 8-letter fallbacks that stay valid across every dictionary here. Since letters like G, I, and N repeat, you have duplicate tiles to play with. You can still hold back a tile like the N or T and rebuild next turn instead of dumping the whole rack at once.
