Frazer Ward

3×3 · top 14.8% of 284,439 all-time · competing since June 2015 · 2015WARD01

Frazer Ward has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 12.25, set at Australian Nationals 2025, puts him in the top 14.8% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 296th in New Zealand. Across 12 competitions since June 2015, he has put 226 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 72% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 8 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 34.05 in June 2015 to 12.25, a 64% improvement. Frazer has entered twelve competitions, more competitions than 94% 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.
