A rare two-guess solve! Today’s Wordle #1758 fell to a classic entropy-driven strategy.

SALET opened with the usual strong coverage, immediately locking in positions 3 and 4 with L and E while revealing that A belonged somewhere else. The S and T were ruled out entirely, cutting the possibility space dramatically.

With ALE as the confirmed pattern and A displaced to position 1 or 2, the weighted-entropy solver had a clear statistical favorite: ALLEY. The double-L configuration fit perfectly with the constraints, and sure enough, it was a perfect match.

Sometimes the algorithm just works. Two guesses, one satisfied solver, and a reminder that Wordle rewards systematic thinking over lucky hunches.
