Andreas Brandl has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.52, set at Munich Open 2019, puts him in the top 3.8% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 201st in Germany. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 12 competitions since November 2017, he has put 394 official solves on the record across seven events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 11.69 in November 2017 to 8.52, a 27% improvement. Andreas has entered twelve competitions, more competitions than 94% 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.
