Alberto Piquera Rubio has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.39, set at Nhood Sevilla Open 2023, puts him in the top 5.0% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 164th in Spain. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since March 2022, he has put 180 official solves on the record across six events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 20.65 in March 2022 to 10.29, a 50% improvement. Alberto 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.
