Filipe Lima dos Santos

3×3 · top 9.2% of 284,439 all-time · competing since April 2023 · 2023SANT23

Filipe Lima dos Santos has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.59, set at Vila Anglo 2023, puts him in the top 9.2% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 467th in Brazil. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since April 2023, he has put 48 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 9% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 13.04 in April 2023 to 10.59, a 19% improvement. Filipe has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
