Emiliano Gonzalez has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.47, set at Saint Mary Scramble 2016, puts him in the top 2.0% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 807th in the United States. Until November 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since February 2016, he has put 290 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 55% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 2×2 best has come down from 4.06 in February 2016 to 1.47, a 64% improvement. Emiliano has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 2×2. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
