Anish Bishwokarma has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.00, set at Kawasaki Spring 2016, puts him in the top 4.7% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 6th in Nepal. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since May 2016, he has put 96 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 19.90 in May 2016 to 11.46, a 42% improvement. Anish has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% 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.
