There is a 1/x[SUP]∞[/SUP] chance these predictions will happen but i keep hoping :agree:

Also every category was easy to chose for me except the men since I actually want both Yuzu and Sho to win. I put Yuzu because i think it is more probable and also because of the last few seasons i think he deserves to win another worlds. But if we are talking this season, i prefer Shoma's programs a lot more.

 

[icybear]

What about "Who do you think will fail to live up to being favourites?" It's kind of bad :dev2:

 

[skylark]

I'm wishing and hoping for dark horse shake-ups, and not just in medals. Looking for some magnificent and surprising performances.

Love the Black Beauties with white stars on their foreheads. :luv17:

LADIES

1. Ashley Wagner
2. Evgenia Medvedeva
3. Anna Pogorilaya
4. Carolina Kostner
5. Gabrielle Daleman
6. Mai Mihara
7. Mariah Bell
8. Kaetlyn Osmond
9. Laurine Lecavelier

11. Maria Sotskova

Shake up the predictability! Turn some heads. Judges, let's see artistry and majestic, mature skating receive their full due.


MEN

1. Javier Fernandez
2. Nathan Chen
3. Yuzuru Hanyu
4. Shoma Uno
5. Jason Brown
6. Patrick Chan
7. Mikhail Kolyada
8. Boyang Jin
9. Maxim Kovtun
10. Denis Ten

However much I played with putting anyone else as #1, Javier just keeps suavely, stubbornly, passionately stepping up a tier.


PAIRS

1. Aliona Savchenko / Bruno Massot
2. Evgenia Tarasova / Vladimir Morozov
3. Wenjing Sui / Cong Han
4. Meagan Duhamel / Eric Radford
5. Vanessa James / Morgan Cipres
6. Alexa Scimeca Knierim / Chris Knierim
7. Haven Denney / Brandon Frazier
8. Ksenia Stolbova / Fedor Klimov
9. Xiaoyu Yu / Hao Zhang
10. Julianne Seguin / Charlie Bilodeau


I desperately want S/M to win this. Their FS is so lyrical, flowing, passionate, and beautifully tempered. 3 spots to CAN, CHN, RUS, USA.


DANCE

1. Gabriella Papadakis / Guillaume Cizeron
2. Madison Chock / Evan Bates
3. Tessa Virtue / Scott Moir
4. Maia Shibutani / Alex Shibutani
5. Ekaterina Bobrova / Dmitri Soloviev
6. Madison Hubbell / Zachary Donohue
7. Kaitlyn Weaver / Andrew Poje
8. Isabella Tobias / Ilia Tkachenko
9. Anna Cappellini / Luca Lanotte
10. Piper Gilles / Paul Poirier

Gabriella and Guillaume have such gorgeous quality, and peak at worlds, so, here goes. Maddie and Evan, work some major spoiler magic here!


ETA: I'd forgotten to include Vanessa/Morgan, so I tweaked some of my other picks too.

:yes:

I'm actually surprised because I think skylark and myself are the only predictors who have put S/M in first so far...I thought they would be heavier favorites.

Welcome to the club ! Their FP is one of my favorites of all time, and if they can perform relatively clean (no pops or sprained ankles, please), they have a chance for a real memorable Worlds moment.

same here regarding their FS, just exquisite at Europeans, even with scrapped tech side, I just wish Aliona will be reasonable about tech packaging enough, considering Olympic season, because they really do have a nice shot for gold even without going for a limb with 4Sth and 3Ath
