Emil Goertz has been competing for 5 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 5.24, set at Oslo Open 2026, puts him in the top 14.7% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 379th in Germany. Across 6 competitions since November 2021, he has put 177 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 66% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 31.18 in November 2021 to 13.06, a 58% improvement. Emil has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
