Pyraminx · top 0.75% of 129,321 all-time · competing since June 2022 · 2022ARCO01
Adrià Arcos has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 1.75, set at El Masnou Open 2024, puts him in the top 0.75% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 22nd in Spain. Until April 2012, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 11 competitions since June 2022, he has put 384 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 70% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 7 DNFs. His Pyraminx best has come down from 4.16 in March 2023 to 1.75, a 58% improvement. He has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
