2×2 · top 1.7% of 189,179 all-time · competing since August 2025 · 2025SOBO02

Cyprian Sobolewski has been competing for a year. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.38, set at Cube Factory Aleksandrów 2026, puts him in the top 1.7% of the 189,179 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 184th in Poland. Until November 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 16 competitions since August 2025, he has put 441 official solves on the record across eight events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 16.71 in August 2025 to 9.48, a 43% improvement. Cyprian has entered 16 competitions, more competitions than 96% 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.
