Felipe Costa de Oliveira has been competing for a year. His best event is the Megaminx: a personal-best single of 52.63, set at Paraíso Spring DC 2025, puts him in the top 6.3% of the 34,786 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 41st in Brazil. Until April 2010, no official Megaminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since September 2024, he has put 303 official solves on the record across nine events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 12.75 in September 2024 to 10.18, a 20% improvement. Felipe has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
