Evan Beltsis

2×2 · top 2.7% of 186,767 all-time · competing since March 2018 · 2018BELT02

Evan Beltsis has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.62, set at Koalafication Melbourne 2019, puts him in the top 2.7% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 220th in Australia. Until November 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 17 competitions since March 2018, he has put 376 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 88% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 21.38 in March 2018 to 12.79, a 40% improvement. Evan has entered 17 competitions, more competitions than 96% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. 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.
