Christian Kirsch

Clock · top 59.5% of 32,048 all-time · competing since December 2023 · 2023KIRS02

Christian Kirsch has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the Clock: a personal-best single of 18.25, set at Munich Open 2026, puts him in the top 59.5% of the 32,048 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 379th in Germany. Across 14 competitions since December 2023, he has put 144 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 50% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 1:22.94 in December 2023 to 42.93, a 48% improvement. Christian has entered 14 competitions, more competitions than 95% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
