Diego Terrones
2×2 · top 5.4% of 186,767 all-time · competing since April 2016 · 2016TERR04
Diego Terrones has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.09, set at WCA European Championship 2018, puts him in the top 5.4% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 189th in Mexico. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since April 2016, he has put 206 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one; 60% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 2×2 best has come down from 4.87 in October 2016 to 2.09, a 57% improvement. Diego has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
