Denner Cássio de Albuquerque Costa has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.02, set at II CUBIFMA 2017, puts him in the top 7.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 368th in Brazil. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since November 2015, he has put 197 official solves on the record across six events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 13.60 in November 2015 to 10.02, a 26% improvement. Denner has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
