What mastery changes
Mastery does not discover new words for your collection. The index already tracks discovery whenever you uncover a word during play, whereas mastery upgrades what happens after you type that word into the typewriter.
Ten words currently feature mastery tracks. Completing all three challenges tied to a tracked word unlocks its Mastered form, granting the word a visual overhaul and stronger gameplay effects.
The challenge list on this page comes from a community record and is not in-game verified by this site.
How the three challenges are counted
Each tracked word sets three specific tasks that must be cleared to reach mastery. Progress only increments when your own typed word triggers the required effect, meaning hazards summoned by other players do not advance your tallies.
Because counts track your own actions, switching words between matches slows you down. Sticking to one word until you finish its set is the fastest way through.
| # | Challenge |
|---|---|
| 1 | Kill 10 with your tornadoes |
| 2 | Knock down 13 buildings |
| 3 | Kill 4 with one tornado |
These three lines for Tornado show how tasks work. You chip away at the cumulative counts across regular rounds, then play toward the single-round spike for the final condition.
The ten tracked words
The table below lists the ten words with active mastery tracks, their base behavior, and what their mastered version unlocks.
| Word | What the base word does | Mastered form |
|---|---|---|
| Tornado | Summons a brief twister that drags in nearby objects. | Mastered Tornado: Becomes a Fire Tornado. Ride on top for 20s. |
| Kill | Hands you a knife that can be used for stabbing or thrown at other players. | Mastered Kill: Glowing red knife. Bounces between 3 players. Comes back to your hand. |
| Earthquake | Triggers a brief hazard that rips the ground open. | Mastered Earthquake: Draw the crack's path. Glowing lava in the crack. Island chunks fall away. |
| Hero | Lets you fly, throw punches, and execute a dramatic superhero landing. | Mastered Hero: Golden aura and a cape. Eye lasers you aim. Grab and throw players. |
| Gojo | Surrounds the writer with a slowing field for roughly 30 seconds that makes them effectively untouchable. | Mastered Gojo: Lapse Blue pulls everyone in. Reversal Red blasts them away. Hollow Purple + Unlimited Void. |
| Dinosaur | Spawns a hunting T-Rex that also triggers if you type Godzilla. | Mastered Dinosaur: Glowing blue spikes. Ride it for 30s. Blue breath attack. |
| Monster | Summons a monster that tracks running players, requiring you to walk quietly. | Mastered Monster: Glowing purple cracks. Ride its neck for 25s. Roar and claw attacks. |
| Black Hole | Opens a black hole that pulls in and devours a corner of the island. | Mastered Black Hole: Debris ring and light beams. Carry it for 15s. |
| Nuke | Calls in a nuclear strike, giving you a short window to reach the bunker. | Mastered Nuke: Much bigger mushroom cloud. Breaks chunks off the island. 30s of acid rain. |
| Tsunami | Sends a huge wave crashing over the island that requires heading to high ground or underground. | Mastered Tsunami: Dark wave full of lightning. A giant ship crashes in. Lightning storm all match. |
The order to work through
Work on one word at a time rather than spreading attempts across multiple tracks. Gojo should be tackled last, because its third challenge requires you to carry a Mastered Black Hole.
You can pick your starting word based on your play style:
- Destruction tracks: Tornado, Earthquake, and Black Hole let you build progress simply by wrecking map structures.
- Direct combat tracks: Kill and Hero reward aggressive duels against other players and bosses.
- Survival tracks: Dinosaur, Monster, Nuke, and Tsunami require enduring severe hazards and surviving into late-round player counts.
Pick the category that fits how you already play to clear your first track quickly.
What is still missing
The mastery system continues to receive adjustments. On 2026-11-09, some challenge goals were lowered while player progress was kept. Players who had already passed the updated goals can claim them at the typewriter-icon Mastery pad in the lobby.
More tracks are on the way. On 2026-11-12, the developer announced Mastered forms for Lava and Car, though their challenges were not published.
