25-second pick · +85

Alborz Deep Cut

6 letters · 1 word · ~2s to type · 85 accepted answers on the sheet

If the first word feels too easy, it probably scores 10. We would type Alborz: Deep Cut, +85, 6 letters, about 2 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Alps, Andes, Himalayas, or Rocky Mountains — those are Plankton. The trench answer is Rwenzori Mountains (+100), but only take it if you can spell it cold.

Trench spelling, only if you already know it: Rwenzori Mountains +100
