Eu Yan Luong
3×3 · top 4.2% of 284,439 all-time · competing since November 2022 · 2022LUON01
Eu Yan Luong has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.72, set at NxN in Hanoi 2024, puts him in the top 4.2% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 254th in Vietnam. Until May 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since November 2022, he has put 247 official solves on the record across eleven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 17% around a typical one, an early reading from 9 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 20.80 in November 2022 to 8.72, a 58% improvement. Eu 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.
