[Megaminx lover]

I have one prediction:
Sub 5 3x3 world record average

8 years too late

4.9

17

5.5

 

[lucazdoescubingstuff]

tymon, max, or feliks gets a sub 3 or sub 4 in 3x3

 

[NigelTheCuber]

tymon, max, or feliks gets a sub 3 or sub 4 in 3x3

i'm going for sub 2

 

[NigelTheCuber]

tymon, max, or feliks

None of those, it's really unlikely those 3 can stay competitive after 10 years

 

[lucazdoescubingstuff]

yeah you're right

By the year 2030 top CFOPers will be able to one-look whole solution during inspection

 

[NigelTheCuber]

By the year 2030 top CFOPers will be able to one-look whole solution during inspection

full f2l yes, but the whole solve nah

 

[espeed]

full f2l yes, but the whole solve nah

Speedbld with 1 minute memo time will replace regular 3x3x3 speedsolving (this is not a serious prediction)

You are an L

 

[NigelTheCuber]

You are an L

Why are clock fanbois so toxic

 

[DuckubingCuber347]

You are an L

There's a such thing as being snarky, and then there's what you did. Mind your manners clock kid.

 

[DynaXT]

There's a such thing as being snarky, and then there's what you did. Mind your manners clock kid.

What I did was not meant to be taken seriously. I never truly intend to hurt anyone's feelings, so if I did then sorry. But that last sentence seems similar to what you're trying to criticize me for.

 

[cuberswoop]

None of those, it's really unlikely those 3 can stay competitive after 10 years

Tymon could probably stay competitive until 2027ish. I'm not sure about max though. Definitely not Feliks.

Im going to assume the event list remains the same, also this will be my only prediction:

2x2: 0.44/1.07
3x3: 2.90/4.32
4x4: 11.56/15.02
5x5: 23.80/27.01
6x6: 40.22/47.15
7x7: 1:03.70/1:09.44

FMC: 15 /19.66
OH: 5.59/7.44
Feet: 12.40/17.90 (unlikely to be an event though)
Clock: 2.33/3.70
Megaminx: 17.92/21.50
Pyraminx: 0.79/1.44
Skewb: 0.82/1.51
Sq-1: 2.99/5.11
4BLD: 41.17/47.12
5BLD: 1:25.23/1:32.55
MBLD: 70/73 in 59:36

Some extra predictions
There will be more competition at the top of each event
People will likely learn 1lll
I will probably still be cubing

I actually think my predictions might be a little conservative.

Some of these were already beaten ha. I guess I'll break my little rule a bit and make a new prediction for the smaller events. I'll still stand by my predictions for the big events.

2x2: 0.40/0.83
3x3: 2.76/3.85
3BLD: 9.71/11.76
OH 5.13/7.22
Pyraminx: 0.61/1.10
Skewb: 0.69/1.16
Squan: 2.56/3.79

This is my last prediction for 2030 for real.
