I dread blank spaces in SpellTower. I'd often rather get a J that requires a 6-letter word than a blank. There are far too many of them and they often come in bunches (are you listening, Zach Gage?).
The only effective way to deal with these is to get rid of them, whenever possible. If I can play a 5-letter word that gets rid of blank spaces, I'll opt for that rather than a word with more letters. It's a vendetta, but I have to avenge myself.
My advice is too keep a close watch on these pernicious blanks because, once they pile up, you'll shortly be starting a new game.
