Why T at the End Matters
💡 Tile Value
T won't win you points on its own, but a 8-letter word is a full rack commitment either way — the win here is having 3313 options ready rather than hunting mid-game.
Because T lands last, 8-letter words ending with T are naturally suited to hooking: adding T onto a shorter word already on the board to build a new one on your turn.
Notable Words

Worth memorising first: JAKFRUIT (22 points) is one of the lower scorers here, which usually means it's a more familiar word — a safer one to keep in your working vocabulary than the obscure high scorers.
How many options: 3313 valid 8-letter words ending with T exist in SOWPODS — well above the ~2345 typical for this slot, so this is a productive letter to search on.
