Edder Esaú Díaz Ruiz

3×3 · top 8.4% of 284,439 all-time · competing since June 2023 · 2023RUIZ17

Edder Esaú Díaz Ruiz has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.32, set at Caré Open 2025, puts him in the top 8.4% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 60th in Guatemala. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since June 2023, he has put 83 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 75% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 26.73 in June 2023 to 10.32, a 61% improvement. Edder has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
