IYYC seems to be like last years worlds except with huge dollar rewards and less competition (except in 1A). I wonder what others think of this contest, and who they believe will win.

You don’t understand.  
Steve Brown’s 5a is insanely good, especially those hubstack x 5a tricks.  
His last worlds freestyle he did in 5a was incredibly innovative for the division, but it never took off. Maybe someday!

I never doubted his skills. It’s just that he’s not competing.
