Krillion vs Long Shot
They look alike on purpose and they are not the same game. Long Shot is The Gravity Report’s daily board. Krillion Longshot is a themed pack inside Krillion. The Gravity Report page says Long Shot was inspired by Krillion and is not connected to it. Krillion’s page says the same thing from the other side.

Same clock, different rarity
Both games pay more for a rarer correct name. Long Shot’s ladder is Layup, Too Cute, Rotation, Deep Bench, Two-Way, Buzzer Beater. Krillion’s ladder is Surface, Sunlit Zone, Twilight Zone, Midnight Zone, Abyssal. “Too Cute” is a 15-point Long Shot tier. Krillion’s “too clever” note is a warning about a popular obscure pick, not a score tier. I keep those words apart so a search for either one does not collapse the games.

Questions people ask
Is Krillion the same as Long Shot Hoops?
No. Long Shot Hoops is the search name for The Gravity Report’s daily game. Krillion Longshot is a separate pack with its own score names, reset, and unlimited mode.
Did Krillion make Long Shot?
No. The Gravity Report publishes Long Shot and says it was inspired by Krillion. Both public pages say the games are not connected.
Why do both say 7 and 25?
The shape of a round matches. The banks, the tier names, the reset clock, and the unlimited mode do not.
