AG Extensions: Where It Gets Useful
AG Strategy: When to Play It
G-tile management: With only 3 G-tiles in the bag, each one matters. AG lets you use a G productively when you can't form longer words, while keeping A-heavy racks from stalling.
Setup for AGE/AGO: Play AG and next turn extend to AGE or AGO. Both use common tiles (E has 12 copies, O has 8) making the extension almost guaranteed.
Front hooks: BAG (6pts), GAG (5pts), HAG (7pts), JAG (11pts), LAG (4pts), NAG (4pts), RAG (4pts), SAG (4pts), TAG (4pts), WAG (7pts). AG is one of the most hookable 2-letter words available.
💡 Did You Know?
AG has 10+ front hooks including JAG (11pts) which scores surprisingly high for a 3-letter word. If your opponent plays AG, you can capitalize by hooking J, H, or W in front for strong returns.
