25-second pick · +100

Enganche One in a Krillion

8 letters · 1 word · ~2s to type · 43 accepted answers on the sheet

Avoid the franchise or event that fills sports-bar talk. We would type Enganche: One in a Krillion, +100, 8 letters, about 2 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Defender, Forward, Goalkeeper, or Midfielder — those are Plankton. It is also the One in a Krillion on this sheet, so the rare pick and the typeable pick are the same.
