How to play this prompt
Strategy notes specific to “Name a winter sport” — not generic advice.
Sports prompts punish bandwagon answers. If they won last year, everyone typed them.
Your edge here is Biathlon: specific, valid, and far from the crowd's first thought. If it feels slightly too obscure to say out loud, that's usually the sign it's worth real points. Bank Luge as your backup — same logic, different answer.
Skiing feels safe because it's obviously right. That's precisely why it's worth the least — safety is crowded. Ice Hockey is the same kind of comfortable, low-scoring pick.
The middle of the bank tells the real story: Cross-Country Skiing lands in Rare while Skiing sits in Plankton — same prompt, wildly different rarity. That gap is exactly where the points hide.
Think in clusters, not singles. Curling, Speed Skating, and Luge sit in the same rarity band — knowing one should unlock the others when the clock is running.
Rated 4/5 difficulty — only 10 banked answers, so matching the bank is genuinely hard. Precision matters more than speed here.
