Egor Solomatov (Егор Соломатов) has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 2.98, set at Siberia Open 2020, puts him in the top 4.9% of the 73,281 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 61st in Russia. Until February 2014, no official Skewb solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since January 2019, he has put 166 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 9% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His Skewb best has come down from 11.37 in January 2019 to 2.98, a 74% improvement. Egor has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
