Pattern facts at a glance
- 71 tournament-dictionary entries fit the O-third, K-fifth pattern.
- BLOCKED, SHOCKED, KNOCKED, CROOKED, and STOCKED are recognizable matches.
- 31 words end in D; another 14 finish with R.
- S starts 17 matches, just ahead of C with 16.
- QUOKKAS scores 24 points, the highest score among these words.
Which matches are easiest to recognize?
The easiest matches to recognize are familiar -ED forms: BLOCKED, SHOCKED, KNOCKED, STOCKED, CLOCKED, and FLOCKED. Their shared ending gives you a quick way to test likely letter combinations without losing track of the fixed O and K.
Other examples shift the word shape. BLOCKER and SHOCKER are agent nouns, while TOOLKIT and ROOTKIT put the same O-and-K frame inside compound words. Read each candidate from left to right; a near-match can place O second instead of third.
For scoring, QUOKKAS leads at 24 points, followed by QUONKED at 21 and CHOCKED at 19. Those high values contrast with the familiar anchor words, which are easier to recognize but do not top the score list.

- With only 8 common entries, unfamiliar plays may depend on your game's dictionary; check its word list before committing.
