Bence Linter

3×3 · top 24.2% of 284,439 all-time · competing since September 2012 · 2012LINT02

Bence Linter has been competing for 14 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 14.92, set at Hungarian Open 2017, puts him in the top 24.2% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 362nd in Hungary. Across 11 competitions since September 2012, he has put 144 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 60% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 6 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 24.65 in September 2012 to 14.92, a 39% improvement. Bence has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% 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.
