Advay Anoop
2×2 · top 8.0% of 186,767 all-time · competing since January 2015 · 2015ANOO01
Advay Anoop has been competing for 12 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.41, set at SCMU KJSCE Open 2015, puts him in the top 8.0% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 648th in India. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since January 2015, he has put 103 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 87% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 44.44 in January 2015 to 13.68, a 69% improvement. Advay has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
