Amesh Pandey has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.64, set at Berkeley Summer 2018, puts him in the top 6.1% of the 130,891 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,573rd in the United States. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since January 2018, he has put 124 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 56% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 26.58 in January 2018 to 13.41, a 50% improvement. Amesh 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.
