2×2 · top 1.9% of 186,767 all-time · competing since August 2014 · 2014MUTC01

Alex Mutch has been competing for 12 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.43, set at Canadian Open 2015, puts him in the top 1.9% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 120th in Canada. Until November 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 104 competitions since August 2014, he has put 4,458 official solves on the record across 16 events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 15.11 in August 2014 to 7.54, a 50% improvement. Alex has entered 104 competitions, more competitions than 99% 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.
