Well obviously clonk is more important than 3x3 (Only if you have the qiyi).

Well OLL is still used for other events, and even if I cared about 3x3 I would probably spend the time to improve my F2L instead of learning full OLL up until I try to break sub-10

I can agree with that.

In fact, I would argue that Clonk is the best event.

Clonk is lame. It’s not even a twisty puzzle.

Clonk is the best event in the wca, I'm sure most would agree.

Maybe not most, but I agree with you that it’s a good event. It’s definitely top 3 for me.

Objectively, its a good event. For starters, the hardware selection isn't very complicated, there is basically one good option (the qiyi), and since there really is no algorithms to memorize, it's easy to get fast at. The only thing that's bad about clock is that it's kind of complicated to lube.

Psssh. Most agree clonk is not cubic and therefore not worthy of WCA status!
does non cubic mean bad? then there is mega and Pyra and sometimes squan.

Cubic puzzles are the most satisfying to hold! All others must submit to their superiority.
I’m just messin around...was feeling feisty yesterday.

That's not a good reason. Clonk is not cubic sure, but neither is pyraminx or megaminx, and while I don't like pyraminx megaminx is definely a top 5 or top 3 event for me. Clonk is a fun event, and saying it's not cubic you may as well say 90% of non wca puzzles aren't fun.

Fun and “best event” are different things; I never said non-wca puzzles aren’t fun. In fact non-wca puzzles are my favorite second only to 3x3.
90% of non-wca puzzles would make bad official events though!

Who knows it could be a good event? I think much of the problem is that no one takes clock seriously.

I think a lot of people take clock seriously, many more than take 2x2 seriously.

And then there’s me who actually takes both seriously, even though I suck at both.

Better than me though. I main a virtual clonk and average 7 at 2x2. Serious stuff

Hmmm. Maybe, don't know much about the series... But I got an argument worth saying (not for people to disagree or eye-roll to though).
MSCube has a HUGE chance in the market because of their marketing and (what seems to be) detailed plans.
