Strategy for Witchcraft Words
JINX is the rare J+X combo: Only one word in English packs both J=8 and X=8 so efficiently. At 18 points from 4 tiles, JINX outscores most 7-letter words. Play it the moment you hold both tiles.
HEX fits anywhere: Just 3 letters — H, E, X — delivering 13 points. HEX slides into the tightest board positions. It also extends to HEXED (16pts), HEXES (15pts), and HEXING (17pts) when space allows.
COVEN deploys V naturally: V=4 is one of the hardest tiles to place. COVEN uses it alongside C=3 for 10 points from familiar letters. Hooks with S for an easy 11-pointer.
💡 Key Insight
Witchcraft words are short-word scoring champions. HEX (3 letters, 13pts), JINX (4 letters, 18pts), and COVEN (5 letters, 10pts) all deliver exceptional points-per-tile ratios. When board space is tight and premium tiles are stuck, think magic.
