Ekaterina Lebedeva

3×3 · top 8.5% of 284,439 all-time · competing since April 2017 · 2017LEBE01

Ekaterina Lebedeva has been competing for 9 years. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.34, set at NSK Cubing Fest 2019, puts her in the top 8.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 330th in Russia. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since April 2017, she has put 121 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, an early reading from 9 counted rounds. Her 3×3 best has come down from 15.99 in April 2017 to 10.34, a 35% improvement. Ekaterina has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
