Duje Janković
2×2 · top 4.3% of 189,179 all-time · competing since December 2024 · 2024JANK01
Duje Janković has been competing for a year. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.93, set at Croatian Championship 2026, puts him in the top 4.3% of the 189,179 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 18th in Croatia. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 14 competitions since December 2024, he has put 317 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 60% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 7 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 36.36 in December 2024 to 9.15, a 75% improvement. Duje has entered 14 competitions, more competitions than 95% 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.
