25-second pick · +85

Antechinus Deep Cut

10 letters · 1 word · ~2s to type · 53 accepted answers on the sheet

If the first word feels too easy, it probably scores 10. We would type Antechinus: Deep Cut, +85, 10 letters, about 2 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Kangaroo or Koala — those are Plankton. The trench answer is Monito del monte (+100), but only take it if you can spell it cold.

Trench spelling, only if you already know it: Monito del monte +100
