Duo Li (李铎) has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3 one-handed: a personal-best single of 14.20, set at Asian Championship 2016, puts him in the top 6.5% of the 73,695 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 621st in China. Until September 2009, no official 3×3 one-handed solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since April 2016, he has put 169 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, an early reading from 9 counted rounds. Duo has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
