Do you know the best letters to choose in Hangman?

There must be a formula to it, which are the most common letters and which order would you use them in?


E is the most common letter in the english language. Go for that one first.

The inventor of Morse code, Samuel Morse (1791-1872), needed to know the same kind of thing so that he could give the simplest codes to the most frequently used letters. He did it simply by counting the number of letters in sets of printers' type. The figures he came up with were:

12,000 E
2,500 F
9,000 T
2,000 W, Y
8,000 A, I, N, O, S
1,700 G, P
6,400 H
1,600 B
6,200 R
1,200 V
4,400 D
800 K
4,000 L
500 Q
3,400 U
400 J, X
3,000 C, M
200 Z

So maybe try things in the order they appear most often.
i wouldn't ask for all vowels first, it's a waste.

i'd go for a, e, maybe i, then s, r, n, t... take it from there. you can usually see word patterns emerging by then that can tell you what letters to guess.
I always start with the vowels of course. A E I O U

then letters like...

H R S T B



...how old are you btw?
E, A, O, I, S,T,U,R,M,N.
I go
E A R S T N I O U
then see a word forming
never guess qzxybpd first they are uncommon
Vowels!
Always ask vowels first
I choose vowels first .

A E I O U

Then i go for

S T R

Then any random letters .

Lol .

For me, I usually choose A E I O U first =D
