Best plays from iq
| Word | Letters | Base points |
|---|---|---|
| iq | 2 | 11 |
| qi | 2 | 11 |
The Q is worth 10 points here, so the best plays all use it. Place it on a double or triple square before spending points elsewhere.
A Q with no U is the awkward draw here. The Q still pays 10 points on its own, so cover a triple letter square now instead of fishing for a U you might never draw.
Lead with IQ for 11 points if a premium square is free. If not, QI keeps the high tile in play without leaving you short on vowels for the next draw.
