Fermín Díaz has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.78, set at Sivar Open 2015, puts him in the top 11.8% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 23rd in El Salvador. Across 4 competitions since December 2015, he has put 131 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 78% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 20.58 in December 2015 to 16.10, a 22% improvement. He has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
