Eliah Stålgren

3×3 · top 5.2% of 284,439 all-time · competing since November 2023 · 2023STAL02

Eliah Stålgren has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.15, set at Linghem Open 2024, puts him in the top 5.2% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 165th in Sweden. Until May 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since November 2023, he has put 138 official solves on the record across nine events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. Eliah has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
