WHO WILL WIN WORLDS 2023? | RUBIK'S CUBE WCA World Championship Predictions

[@csnap7945]

Nationals was so cool to watch

[@thanos2615]

It sucked.

[@permutatedcubing]

@@thanos2615 were you even there? It was so fun to watch

[@ghe763]

I think ruihang has a good chance of podiuming actually. He hasn't gone to a lot of comps, but he got a few low 5 averages this year. Yiheng seems to be pretty good with pressure and his results in comp are the best in the world. He only got one 6 sec average this year. I think he will get 1st or 2nd.

[@moontrainz3790]

Yeah, his recent 5.01 means he’s improving

[@InfinitySpeedcuber]

Yiheng without nerves: Wins with WRs, beats everyone by 1.00 seconds Yiheng with nerves: Wins, no WRs but beats everyone by 0.50 seconds

[@kyh148]

I think Yiheng is gonna destroy the rest. He set his world record in a damn head to head final, and he's averaging low to mid five in comps in general.

[@kyle497]

I agrre

[@RSK-GamerZ]

I agree

[@cubicube9339]

I’m going too! Can’t wait to see everyone do well

[@swiftcubing]

I'll give it my best shot!

[@brentsmith3376]

Love the effort you put into your vids.

[@skewbsolva6045]

They're always so well edited

[@NobleCubes]

Thank you!

[@ya-boi2547]

tbh i think tymon has a better chance at podiuming than yiheng, because as you said, he will be under a lot of pressure so i think tymon will come 2nd or 3rd

[@mango7231]

bro is the least biased oceanic cuber. but fr, Yiheng comfortably performs with a thousand eyes on him. I don't really know why you think he'll get overwhelmed by pressure. Max was stated by his dad that he gets nervous in major finals, it's really up to him if he can overcome that.

[@ZebraCubes]

Keep in mind that this is Yiheng's first Worlds, and Max Park has been in Major Finals before. Either one could win or podium, but we'll have to let the finals prove it

[@jzeng2022]

As long as there are intelligence and skill competitions such as video games, math competitions, magic competitions, hacker competitions, etc., the Chinese should not be forgotten when guessing the champion!

[@Leo-ct9pm]

Will you do a follow-up video to compare your predictions with the results of the comp ?

[@NobleCubes]

Good idea, we’ll see!

[@expiredcubing]

You're sleeping on Dwyane Ramos in OH he's definitely gonna podium and i think he has a great chance to win

[@kasperpasanen1476]

My winner predictions 3x3 mbld: Graham Siggins 4x4/5x5 bld: Stanley Chapel Square1: Max Siauw Skewb: Urho Kinnunen Pyraminx: Michael Nielsen Megaminx: Leandro Martin Lopez Clock: Caleb Trelford 3x3 oh: Patrick Ponce 3x3 fmc: Jayden McNeill 3x3 bld: Tommy Cherry 4x4-7x7: Max Park 2x2: Zayn Khanani 3x3: Tymon Kolasinski

[@KhalidTheBeeKeeper]

prediction: yiheng wang will drink an age up potion and proceed to get a sub 1 ao5 on 3x3 and the times are: (0.03) 0.23 (0.78) 0.35 0.21 and then he wins worlds but during the celebrations aliens pick him up to go to his home planet with Rowan Fortier

[@NobleCubes]

Best prediction yet

[@RowanFortier]

😳

[@minghowong9675]

I think you forget to mention some roux solvers for 3x3 oh. Sean or Dwyane or Magnus or Antonio Kam may have the chance to podium or even win.

[@curiousNic]

"I'm Siauw of it" 😂BaDum Tss Your predictions are pretty close to mine, would love to see most of them come true. Have an awesome time at Worlds, it will be wild!

[@PlayeCrackenYT]

I really wish Juan Pablo Huanqui wins megaminx tbh, he's from my country and he's Really, really good.

[@AnthonyRochester]

Surely Tymon would podium in 3x3

[@ChaitanyaJoshi123]

Yes

[@geoffins]

Yes, this was my biggest thought on the whole video. I think Tymon will podium.

[@AnthonyRochester]

And it came to pass...

[@bingoblueman]

Ngl you’re probably onto something with that final

[@EddieCubing]

For megaminx, I really think Tristan could podium( definitely not biased just because he’s Singaporean like me).

[@speeedycuber]

ye he gonna get 2nd

[@nigleloveclock]

he won lol

[@3x3solver25]

Wow this is so thought out

[@kyle497]

I think tymon for 2nd instead of luke, luke might get 4th or 5th

[@ignacymaj3812]

imagine tymon and max on the podium and than yiheng who is really small

[@rxcubing2847]

Some of these are an interesting take, but I agree with most of them

[@voltsq1]

Would be so cool to compete in another country for worlds! Good luck

[@dumb_cuber1]

3x3 1: tymon 2:matty 3:luke

[@samueljehanno]

You were right about Max Park winning the competition !

[@BlueJacketCubes]

haha thanks for the mention bro, fingers crossed that i do make that podium also caleb is not going 👀

[@akashsreedharan]

Great Predictions! just a fyi tho, Wong Chong Wen's first name is Chong Wen, Wong is his surname(its how names typically work here in SG and east asia for chinese, korean or Japanese (but I'm not so sure abt the latter) names

[@NobleCubes]

Oh thanks for letting me know!

[@akashsreedharan]

​@@NobleCubesnp, love your vids!

[@EddieCubing]

Hope to see you there!

[@ImagineNotCubing]

For 3x3 I think Tymon will come first, Yiheng second and Max 3rd

[@sumiranmaiskar]

It honestly seems most logical to me that Yiheng wins, but all the logic falls by the wayside in situations like these. As David Zemdegs said in The Speed Cubers, it is what happens on the day.

[@cookierobber]

Love the energy, but feels like you got a few people mixed up maybe? For multi in particular - Rowe hasn't streamed in a long time, and Shivam's only official success this year is a 20/22

[@AnthonyRochester]

Yep Shivam hasn't been doing high level multiblind recently. Rowe should be a contender though.

[@cookierobber]

@@AnthonyRochester I'm unsure if Rowe will even go, given he wasn't at nats. Also even if he's there, given all his troubles with comp performance I can't see him as a favourite to podium. Stanley, Yucheng, and Krzysztof all seem more likely imo

[@AnthonyRochester]

Yeah you're probably right

[@dnsv617]

Can't wait to watch it, very exciting

[@skwebjacob]

I think a lot of your predictions are reasonable but I think for 4x4 second will go to Sebastian Weyer. He's second in the world and is definitely one of the best at 4x4.

[@yuncai742]

I am not sure who is the winner,but I probably think Max Park will get sub3 single in final

[@lucas_lb_cube]

simon not even being brought up for skewb, after he wins it at nats 💀

[@remycubes30]

bruh I don’t think he registered

[@lucas_lb_cube]

@@remycubes30yeah he did

[@raihanencanto]

3x3: 1. Feliks Zemdegs 2. Seung-Hyuk Nahm 3. Max Park

[@nak523]

3-4 years ago might be correct

[@rax1899]

Is this 2017 or smth?

[@stevenfraser1992]

Tymon not on the podium?

[@sparkeys2190]

I think tripodi is a shout

[@anucube]

Woah love thos channel ❤😂 Would have gone if my foot was not broken 😢

[@ananthajitplayschess5785]

TYMON LIKE: THIS GUY HATES ME!!

[@EddieCubing]

nahhhh Yiheng is gonna dnf on the first round of 3x3 because of timer malfunctions. Either that or he’ll get a 3 second wr average in the finals.

[@itsvexed2774]

I think Tymon gonna take 3×3 finals ❤

[@viktornedeljkovic1160]

dose anybody know where is this going to be streamd?

[@NobleCubes]

Probably Twitch somewhere, Im sure it will be announced sooner to the day on the WCA Instagram page

[@viktornedeljkovic1160]

​@@NobleCubescan you plzzz tell me if you find out cuzz I dont have instagram

[@viktornedeljkovic1160]

Oh wait sorry a I just saw that they posted it lol no first day sadly😢😢😢😢

[@cubetubershreyansh6639]

For 3x3 i think - 1st tymon, 2nd max, 3rd yiheng or luke

[@ArghadeepMukherjee]

Who the hell is shivaam buzzzmaaal bruh his name is literally there

[@100mcuber4]

wheres tymon in 3x3. WHERES TYMON IN 3X3

[@smilecuberepeat]

Great video! I honestly think that Leo Borremeo could win as he did win the oceanic championships and he is very consistent, either that or max. Aside from that I pretty much agree with all of your predictions, being pretty reasonable and they make logical sense!

[@rax1899]

Leo hasn’t been getting as good averages as other people so I doubt it

[@smilecuberepeat]

@@rax1899 true but he can do really well under pressure and the fact he was able to beat the entire oceanic region gives an idea that he will most likely come at least 2nd

[@rax1899]

@@smilecuberepeat maybe, but I personally believe other people have a better chance, and tbh, Leo didn’t have much competition in oceanics

[@smilecuberepeat]

@@rax1899 you have a very fair point, at the end of next week we shall see who is right my freind!

[@nuggleiii]

leo is like the opposite of consistent

[@gericubing]

I think in big cubes podiuming cierán beahan

[@Mangohawk124]

How long once the world championship occurs?

[@NobleCubes]

12th of August

[@rikishikato5001]

Man, it's unfortunate that Fahmi Aulia Rahman isn't going. He might win OH and maybe even get WR average

[@NatFar369]

Phoenix Patterson could come 2nd or 3rd for 2x2

[@NatFar369]

just realised he isn’t competing lol 😂

[@skewbsolva6045]

Zayne is goat for skewb and 2x2

[@remycubes30]

carter has the avg world record

[@Diamond_heart1]

Yoo I wish I was going, but i dont have any money :( Good luck!

[@kiacarndarwin2913]

I haven’t heard of half these people haha, good on them and good luck

[@christian3145]

Idk i feel it will go as: Yiheng Tymon Max

[@minhadang3490]

nah Max is insanely good but i think yiheng probably gonna take the 1st, luke 2nd and tymon or matty will take the 3rd This is the hardest event to be predict tho. It depends on many elements

[@ipsity]

Good Luck!

[@NobleCubes]

Thanks!

[@bingoblueman]

Should be an exciting finals

[@spriteblood]

I hope for Roux on podium like last time

[@Sebastian.727]

Not Ciaran 😢

[@mirrorpants5053]

Sebastian Lee hasn't been performing well recently?? Maybe you shot this video before he set the NR average a month ago. 🤷‍♂

[@remycubes30]

he literally said that he watched nationals and now has predictions on who can win each event

[@youtoo9860]

I wish I was going to worlds, good luck everyone

[@duskden2]

Pretty solid predictions all things considered

[@Tymonvokic]

3×3 Tymon kolasinski 🔥

[@apizs]

the fact that tymon was not in top 3

[@shivambansal42]

Thanks for picking me 😁

[@IDID_1]

I think tymon will be at least top 3

[@charenprincer-tk1ft]

Oo good luck at worlds

[@Isaiah_Scott]

Luke will definitely podium in 3x3

[@louise5143]

tymon

[@denselj4827]

Cool vid

[@Cow_Cubing]

I wanna see yiheng win

[@davedebronkart6863]

I agree

[@MitchGann]

Can't wait!

[@popcornthequail]

wong chong from singapore

[@JaCuberr]

YiHeng Will win the 3x3 mark my words

[@RSK-GamerZ]

I agree

[@xue_hu99]

I think Tymon Kolasinski

[@xue_hu99]

Max Park is not very possible to get first，you can look through his results in USA Nationals.His 3x3 single is even not as good as Yiheng‘s average.But I think he can get third at least

[@hesacuber]

hey, I didn’t hear my name 😂

[@NobleCubes]

Anythings possible!

[@Liambicker]

Interesting

[@alexandersame1767]

Surely Feliks cmon

[@yogipoo]

Hot take: Sameer Is going to win with a 4.98 average

[@NobleCubes]

Very specific, sure!

[@yogipoo]

​@NobleCubes my reasoning is that Sameer has been beating max around half or more of the time.

[@DoubleeyAG]

lmao

[@cubemanistan6900]

Max will win all big cubes I think

[@neilgour]

"shivaam bazmaal"

[@Benwakelincubing]

Tripod is gonna WIN

[@loser_CaO]

有一箇前世界紀錄保持者，现在是外賣员，自己説没旹閒和路费去比赛😅😅😅LOL

[@radiathpatwary2562]

Imagine Feliks wins 3x3 hahahahaha

[@geoffins]

Bring that on!
