WCA events ranked from most to least boring

I will create my list based on the cubes I tried before. Note that all events are pretty equal to me and the main reason I rate an event low is either I haven't got enough experience or it just got pushed out.

6. Skewb
Main reason : I haven't solved it yet. I know it would be fun for some people but it's not the thing for me.

5. Pyraminx
It is pretty intuitive and fast if you know how to do it. Like I said, pushed out. I would learn it if I had one though.

4. 2x2
It's okay but the main reason I rate it low is that I haven't got proper knowledge to rate it properly and it's too short in general.

3. Megaminx
The event I tried the most besides nxn. Th F2L.aspect is fun and LL has a nice challenge.

2. 4x4
It is a step over 3x3 and I think is relatively fast and easy to improve on.

1. 3x3
The original. It is my fastest event (Not that I do many events) and it has just the right amount of dedication and time to be good.
 
16: Clock. Never tried, never will

Tried once, had no fun, probably will never try it again:
15: Pyraminx.
14: Skewb.
13: OH.
12: 2x2.

Tried once, had fun as a riddle to solve, but I don't find it appealing as a speed event
11: Square-1

Never tried, but I can see myself enjoying:
10: 5BLD. I can imagine it being very satisfying
9: 4BLD.
8: FMC. I like the concept so I might give it a shot at some point.
7: 7x7, 6x6: I see how they could be appealing but they are too time consuming to even solve them casually let alone do deliberate practice

Events I might try again
6: 5x5. I see the appeal but it's too big
5: 4x4. I see the appeal but parity
4: Megaminx. being a CFOP solver I really enjoy F2L, so Megaminx would be cool if not for the LL

Events I enjoy and practice:
3: Multi-BLD
2: 3BLD

The event:
1: 3x3
 
17- 2x2, only 10kish possibilities, even less than 5-style edges, smh such a small set 2x2 has. Not worth it.
16- Square-1, I am really bad in fingertricking this puzzle.
15- Skewb, nice corner turning, but too less possibilities to get me interested.
14 - 7x7, cant do long sessions with this puzzle without getting tired.
13- 6x6 too many pieces, fear of misturning always there while turning even the flagship 6x6s.
12- Pyra, If master pyra was an event it would rank higher. Pyra has too less possibilities to interest me.
11 - Mega, cool event but really bad in fingertricking this puzzle.
10- Clock, no comments, hardware is good now though, can get tons of PRs once comps come back.
9- FMC, really nice event but seeing the single digit integer score is boring metric of evaluation.
8 - OH, Roux OH is super satisfying to do, I somehow keep improving in this event so I like it more
7- 4x4, cool puzzle fun to solve
6- 5x5, one of the fun sighted events that I like to do both casually and seriously.
5- 3BLD, fun event finishes quite fast though so gets too nervy. I prefer bigBLD and MBLD
4 - 3x3, this event ranks highly because I get to be method neutral in it. Also super easy to do an ao100 without getting tired.
3 - 4BLD ,Solid event, easier to turn a bit faster compared to 5BLD. Also 1-passing is easier, but I prefer 5BLD as I like ~23 letter quads memo chunk.
2- 5BLD ,5 piece types and 5 cool buffers to trace from. I like this event a lot. This event also has given me a few records.
1 - MBLD, Letter quads, UF5, full floating, one passing, full parity, nested mind palace. Lot of stuff to innovate in this event and super fun to improve on. Although I am not world class in this event, this event turns me on a lot.

18: Feet: It literally got removed
17.2x2: It's literally impossible for me to get pr average or single
16. Megaminx: I spend 75% of my solve looking for F2L pieces
15. 5BLD: You need a super good memory and center fingertricks are hard
14. FMC: You spend 3 hours writing stuff
13. 3x3: You are ranked low because everyone is doing it
12. Multi: You need to be rich to win because you need many cubes
11. 4BLD: It's 3BLD but harder
10. OH: It's 3x3 but with one hand
9. 5x5: It's fun but it's the only event that I came last once (that's not 2x2)
8. Clock: it's fun but weird
7. Pyraminx: It's fun but tips exist and you can step on it
6. 3BLD: You need a good memory in order to succeed
5: 4x4: It's fun and spectator frendly
4: 6x6: I enjoy big cubes
3: 7x7: You can impress non cubers
2: Skewb: It's easy but very fun
1: Square 1: It's literally the belt method. Everyone enjoys the belt method. Also cubes aren't expensive.

FMC: You spend 3 hours writing stuff
Hey I never knew that 1=3
3x3: You are ranked low because everyone is doing it
Well then practice more.
3BLD: You need a good memory in order to succeed
Memorizing 20 letters and making a random sentence out of them doesn't require good memory
Pyraminx: It's fun but tips esitst and you can step on it
Why would anyone put their pyraminx on the ground then accidentally steps on it??
Also this is how you spell the word: exist
Multi: You need to be rich to win because you need many cubes
There is something called bulk payment with a lot of cheap cubes
Woah I've never expected to see anyone like square 1
Says the person who puts squan on number 1
but WHO ENJOYS FEET???
The people who practice it.

For the events I have tried
8. 3BLD - No motivation and I haven't had a success yet.
7. Skewb - Boring and weird
6. 3x3 OH - Dont like it
5. 2x2 - You need knowledge of a ton of algs, which I haven't learnt yet.
4. 4x4 - Meh
3. 5x5 - Better than 4x4, for sure
2. Megaminx - A different event for once.
1. 3x3 - Inarguably the best event. Though it gets repetitive after a while.
 
My short list
8. Pyraminx - I don't think I grip it correctly
7. FMC - okay but takes quite a bit of time
6. Megaminx - idk what lube I put in my Yuhu but it's slow and gummy now. Also the pauses are annoying
5. 3BLD - successes feel very nice, especially in comp
4. 4x4 - It's pretty fun, probably would rank it higher if I had a better cube
3. 2x2 - I'm improving rn and there's a clear pathway to get faster, which is nice
2. OH - chill
1. 3x3 - maybe I've been subconsciously peer pressured by basically everyone. It's probably also where I reach my highest TPS
