Evan and Shion are always safe bets. I’d say Hunter and Kohei are the second most likely from US and Japan respectively. Mir Kim probably has a pretty good shot, given hes won the last 2 online worlds (but irl may be different, we’ll see)
Polo always has a chance, and some other Korean players have been doing really well in online contests (Park Jun Sang, Kim Min Joon)

I hope Junsang Park does well. Great player and I’m loving his Seiji.

I’m admittedly not very well versed in players outside the US (besides the usual suspects)…. But we’ll see if Hunter pulls out the W at Nats, if he does, I feel like he’s got a legitimately pretty great shot at it - he’s been on fire lately. Evan will be Top 3 at least I’m sure.

Honestly it’s pretty hard to say. Because there are just so many talented yoyo players now and more people are now on the competitive scene than there was a few years ago. I definitely agree with @SR1 that Evan will most likely place in the top 3. But if I had to guess who would probably win worlds this year I would say Mir Kim for sure. Mir ( and Miri) are on a whole other level and are yo-yoing machines! I think that both of the Kim’s are going all the way this year. We’ll find out soon though!

I would say that the world champion will no doubt be the person that finishes in first place.

I think Hunter has a legitimately decent shot. That or Zhou Bowen (go team c3!)
Ahmad Kharisma if he plays clean. I saw his nats freestyle, it was insane.
