Why this word played the way it did
CLICK runs on a single vowel (I), which makes opener words like ADIEU or AUDIO nearly useless against it — players who started consonant-heavy had the edge. The letter C appears twice, and double letters are the single most common reason a streak dies — Wordle gives no special signal that a letter repeats.
The real danger came from near-neighbors: ALICK and KLICK differ by just one letter, and players who locked in four greens early often had to burn a guess — or two — separating them. The counter-move is to guess a word that tests the differing letters at once rather than trying each candidate in turn.
Community data puts puzzle #1893 at 4.7 guesses on average, which we rate challenging. Anything under four guesses on this one was a strong result.
