3×3 · top 23.8% of 284,439 all-time · competing since February 2017 · 2017RAJA03

Abhinav Raj has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 14.81, set at Hyderabad Cube Open 2018, puts him in the top 23.8% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3,074th in India. Across 3 competitions since February 2017, he has put 54 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 23.93 in February 2017 to 14.81, a 38% improvement. Abhinav has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% of everyone who has ever competed.

The story so far

Competitions

Reading this page: a single is one solve's time · an average is the middle three of five solves, best and worst discarded · a PB is a personal best · a DNF (did not finish) is an attempt with no valid result: a popped piece, an unsolved face, an over-limit memorisation · top X% compares against everyone ever ranked in that event, which is fairer than raw rank because event pools differ tenfold.
