Anton Shcherbakov
Pyraminx · top 4.2% of 129,321 all-time · competing since January 2016 · 2016SHCH01
Anton Shcherbakov has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.16, set at Cuberussia in Kalmykia 2017, puts him in the top 4.2% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 99th in Russia. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since January 2016, he has put 167 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 2×2 best has come down from 6.25 in January 2016 to 2.38, a 62% improvement. Anton has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
