Arjun Murti has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.14, set at An Afternoon in Nyack 2024, puts him in the top 5.2% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,903rd in the United States. Until May 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 11 competitions since December 2023, he has put 165 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 54% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 13.03 in December 2023 to 9.14, a 30% improvement. Arjun has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% 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.
