Carlos Emiliano Esquivel Badillo has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the Megaminx: a personal-best single of 43.18, set at Mexican Championship 2023, puts him in the top 2.5% of the 34,786 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 21st in Mexico. Until April 2011, no official Megaminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since March 2018, he has put 358 official solves on the record across nine events.

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.
