Dylan DeRubertis has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the Clock: a personal-best single of 2.70, set at Davis Summer 2025, puts him in the top 0.42% of the 32,048 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 42nd in the United States. Until June 2023, no official Clock solve in the world had been that fast. Across 20 competitions since October 2023, he has put 436 official solves on the record across nine events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 23.06 in October 2023 to 12.85, a 44% improvement. Dylan has entered 20 competitions, more competitions than 97% 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.
