Cheng-Ru Lee (李承儒)
3×3 · top 4.6% of 288,433 all-time · competing since December 2025 · 2025LEEC10
Cheng-Ru Lee (李承儒) has been competing for 10 months. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.87, set at Maru Cube Day Taiwan 2026, puts him in the top 4.6% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 276th in Chinese Taipei. Until May 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since December 2025, he has put 133 official solves on the record across nine events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 84% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 11.84 in December 2025 to 8.87, a 25% improvement. He has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
