25-second pick · +85

Draco Deep Cut

5 letters · 1 word · ~2s to type · 46 accepted answers on the sheet

If the first word feels too easy, it probably scores 10. We would type Draco: Deep Cut, +85, 5 letters, about 2 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Chameleon, Gecko, Iguana, or Komodo dragon — those are Plankton. The trench answer is Pygmy blue-tongue (+100), but only take it if you can spell it cold.

Trench spelling, only if you already know it: Pygmy blue-tongue +100
