2×2 · top 9.7% of 186,767 all-time · competing since October 2017 · 2017MALI06
Atif Malik has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.58, set at PDPU Open 2019, puts him in the top 9.7% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 785th in India. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since October 2017, he has put 141 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 82% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 33.28 in October 2017 to 11.58, a 65% improvement. Atif 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.
