You won't see memory champions using Anki for competitions as their main memorization tool that's for sure. Thats because Anki isn't for memorization, it's for time optimization and scheduling. Nothing about Anki makes you remember a fact better, that's still on you, and the memory champions use ALL those tricks and techniques. Anki just schedules the non-memory-champions needing to mostly remember most of the things, and minimize the time taken to try and do that. Said as a multi-year daily Anki user getting really close to a 1000 day streak.
