Alden Schatteles

2×2 · top 37.7% of 186,767 all-time · competing since April 2019 · 2019SCHA05

Alden Schatteles has been competing for 7 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 4.87, set at Minnesota Qualifier 2019, puts him in the top 37.7% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 15,071st in the United States. Across 4 competitions since April 2019, he has put 45 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 9% 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 30.25 in April 2019 to 27.09, a 10% improvement. Alden has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
