Where it all begins. 90% of new tiles are this value.

2 is the most common tile in 2048. About 90% of the new tiles that appear after each move are 2s, with the remaining 10% being 4s.

Two 2s merge into a 4. Merging small 2s promptly to reopen empty cells — instead of letting them pile up — is the key to good early-game management.
