- The sequel to Scrabble but EVERY 2 IS VALID: • Scrabble but EVERY 2 I...
Well, Scrabble with every two-letter combination being valid was quite a game, so I decided to take things to the extreme... in the opposite direction!
Today, all two letter words are officially BANNED. "Is it so?" I don't know what you're talking about, those aren't words!
The memories of overlaps, parallel plays, and Mack relentlessly telling you to learn your 2s are gone... at least for today. But no 2s certainly doesn't mean no excitement, so you won't want to miss this epic battle!
This is basically how Will Anderson played during his match vs ITRI's scrabble robot.
That's a deep cut
yes, though I believe hooks were also not valid in that game!
Haha, didn't even think of that!
15:20 Half of me wanted to Mack to play (F)U(G) making UH* just to watch him react to Quackle challenging it off the board.
I'll admit, coming back to this video after a couple days I had to do a double take for a second there after reading "UH*" and remind myself what was going on 🤣
That game could have been over very quickly if you both started with unhookable three-letter words in + formation
True, but pretty hard for both threes to be unhookable (and also completely unextendable). I'd also like to think that whoever would be making the second three would avoid doing so as they'd likely be down points and digging their own grave by going into a six-pass... (granted, Quackle was certainly not so careful about this in the all-M Scrabble game!)
Except for the first turn it's pretty much impossible to play a 7 letter bingo. Better know your 8's!
Natural WINDSURF is pretty sick
Now try “All 3 letter words are valid”, “All 3 letter words are banned”, etc.
This would be a crazy thing to see run at an official Scrabble tournament.
Scrabble but you can't add letters to any existing words on the board. (If the word 12345, where numbers represent letters, is on the board, you can't hook it to form 612345 or 123456, and you can't extend it to 12345678, but you still can play a word using another letter on the board or "extend" a one-letter word.)
What about no two letters word but all 3 letters combinations valid.
This was a really interesting variant, I'm glad you took my suggestion, I was curious what this would look like after your last episode of modified Scrabble. I'm glad you got to this so quickly. Also, I would actually watch a video delving deeper into the endgame strategy with this variant. It's always cool to see how quickly you're able to adjust your strategy to these variants.
Thanks so much for the suggestion and support! Yeah the endgame strategy in this variant must be super complex given the difficulty of playing one tile, would love to explore that more
That bag towards the end and then W(I)NDSURF to salvage it, crazy stuff. Would've been good content in almost any ruleset
Yeah WINDSURF was wild from that pool! Glad I still pulled it out haha
Funny idea: Take like 5 minutes to write down a bunch of words. Those are the only valid words in the game.
How about scrabble, but with the Cyrillic alphabet, or IPA letters.
How about playing scrabble with only vowels, but also having some Y’s? That way high scoring words are somewhat possible and there are more words you can play in general
Love your vids man!
Thanks so much, really appreciate your support!
Not sure how to code or work this idea, but how about a variant where each premium tile can be counted more than once. So if you get an 8 on a triple line, and by adding a letter it could count as a triple-triple
Assuming it isn’t too difficult to implement, how about one changing the bingo bonus to 150 points?
There were often chances where he could expand on an already long word where he decided to use extra letters.
next is no 2s or 3s for križemkražem mode (as well as no hooks but that's probably not possible in quackle)
Oh hi galoomba

you should modify the board so that the score modifying tiles are inverted. So a triple word score tile will score 1/3 points
I'd love to do this but Quackle won't allow :(
Lets design a perfectly fair scrabble letter set and play it!
this is already done in "Scrabble with worse tiles worth more points" :)
@@lucas29476 but that was not perfectly designed i feel like
