How to play this prompt

Strategy notes specific to “Name a sport played on ice” — not generic advice.

Sports prompts punish bandwagon answers. If they won last year, everyone typed them.

The winning instinct on this one: skip your first thought entirely and type your second. Bandy is a perfect example — completely valid, just not the reflex answer. Curling plays the same role as a backup.

The trap is Hockey — correct, but it's the reflex answer for a reason: it's the first thing the category suggests. Ice Skating is the same story. Typing either one puts you shoulder-to-shoulder with most of the player base at 10 points.

The middle of the bank tells the real story: Speed Skating lands in Rare while Hockey sits in Plankton — same prompt, wildly different rarity. That gap is exactly where the points hide.

Build yourself a mental shelf for this prompt: Figure Skating, Luge, Curling. They're different answers, same rarity neighborhood — and that neighborhood is where dives are won.

Rated 4/5 difficulty — only 11 banked answers, so matching the bank is genuinely hard. Precision matters more than speed here.
