Hello again!

1-) I play better than you.
2-) I play better than you do.
3-) I play better than you play.

A-) I am wiser than you.
B-) I am wiser than you are.

Yeah, I'm wondering whether all of them make sense. It's evident that 1-) and A-) are correct but what about the other ones?

Also are there any alternatives for these sentences?

Thank you!

Yes, they are all fine. #3 is less common; native speakers normally use the 'do' pro-form. I think you have included all the alternative structures.
