Artur Kutukov (Артур Кутуков)

3×3 · top 9.6% of 284,439 all-time · competing since May 2017 · 2017KUTU01

Artur Kutukov (Артур Кутуков) has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.71, set at Smartcube Fest Kyiv 2019, puts him in the top 9.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 258th in Ukraine. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since May 2017, he has put 71 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, an early reading from 7 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 26.22 in May 2017 to 10.71, a 59% improvement. Artur has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
