Atharva Srivastava has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.74, set at Mathsoc Delhi Open 2024, puts him in the top 6.4% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 366th in India. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since July 2022, he has put 99 official solves on the record across three events.

Atharva has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
