Clock · top 15.1% of 32,048 all-time · competing since March 2023 · 2023KLIM02

Andrey Klimov has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the Clock: a personal-best single of 7.96, set at Almaty New Year 2026, puts him in the top 15.1% of the 32,048 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 25th in Kazakhstan. Across 12 competitions since March 2023, he has put 420 official solves on the record across eleven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one; 58% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 7 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 33.77 in March 2023 to 12.37, a 63% improvement. Andrey has entered twelve competitions, more competitions than 94% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
