Elias Fuentes has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the Clock: a personal-best single of 6.38, set at Masdos Returns 2017, puts him in the top 8.6% of the 32,817 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 24th in Argentina. Until June 2010, no official Clock solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since March 2016, he has put 217 official solves on the record across nine events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 82% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 24.71 in March 2016 to 13.24, a 46% improvement. Elias 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.
