As soon as once more, a Strands puzzle that primarily seems to be ‘synonyms for one more phrase’ is a straightforward one to unravel. That is smart, on condition that it is typically a less complicated process to think about different phrases that imply the identical factor than it’s to think about phrases associated to a selected subject if you do not know a lot in regards to the subject in query…
Anyway, the theme right here was obvious as soon as I discovered SUPERLATIVE (having tried and failed with SUPER), and when coupled with the theme clue of ‘You are the very best!’ EXCELLENT was a straightforward remedy within the prime proper after that, so to the spangram, CHAMPION. It took me a short while to get the following one, ICONIC, however the remaining two fell into place with no downside after that.
