Eduardo Villanueva has been competing for a year. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 7.71, set at PUCP Cubing Festival X 2026, puts him in the top 2.3% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 71st in Peru. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since March 2025, he has put 140 official solves on the record across three events.

His 2×2 best has come down from 4.10 in March 2025 to 2.11, a 49% 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.
