25-second pick · +100

Toronto Huskies One in a Krillion

14 letters · 2 words · ~4s to type · 68 accepted answers on the sheet

Walk past the supermarket default. We would type Toronto Huskies: One in a Krillion, +100, 14 letters, about 4 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Boston Celtics, Chicago Bulls, Golden State Warriors, or Los Angeles Lakers — 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.

Skip Boston Celtics · Chicago Bulls · Golden State Warriors · Los Angeles Lakers
