Eduardo Villalba
Skewb · top 2.1% of 73,281 all-time · competing since September 2016 · 2016VILL40
Eduardo Villalba has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 2.27, set at Chaco de invierno 2017, puts him in the top 2.1% of the 73,281 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1st in Paraguay. Until February 2014, no official Skewb solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since September 2016, he has put 345 official solves on the record across twelve events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 88% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 6 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 15.50 in September 2016 to 12.55, a 19% improvement. Eduardo has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% 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.
