Filip Baiduo Qiu has been competing for 5 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.25, set at Herrljunga Open 2022, puts him in the top 6.7% of the 189,179 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 957th in China. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 12 competitions since September 2021, he has put 542 official solves on the record across ten events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 20.44 in September 2021 to 12.16, a 41% improvement. Filip has entered twelve competitions, more competitions than 94% 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.
