3×3 · top 5.7% of 284,439 all-time · competing since March 2022 · 2022OFEK01
Artemis Ofek has been competing for 4 years. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.35, set at Cubing for Yuval 2023, puts her in the top 5.7% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 166th in Israel. Until February 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since March 2022, she has put 173 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, steadier than 95% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. Her 3×3 best has come down from 13.21 in March 2022 to 9.35, a 29% improvement. Artemis has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
