Is Clock Getting Revived?

This took me a very long time to make, and I hope it shows!

Feel free to start discussion on what you think this has done to the WCA and to clock!

Nice, IMO clock was already becoming mainstream way before the pin reg change.

Nice vid. Clock may have gotten a big boost in popularity(and controversy) after the pin regs changed, but people will probably go back to hating clock after the stream of WRs has died down.

Thank you very much!!

Nice, IMO clock was already becoming mainstream way before the pin reg change.

As far as I know, there were many more talks about its removal throughout 2022-23 rather than before that, and the only thing that fueled Clock through 2023 was the creation and development of 7-Simul

let's hope not, but I understand why people may believe so
