Gabriel Mello Coelho da Silva

Pyraminx · top 2.7% of 129,321 all-time · competing since November 2025 · 2025SILV78

Gabriel Mello Coelho da Silva has been competing for 10 months. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 2.70, set at Campeonato Mineiro 2026, puts him in the top 2.7% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 65th in Brazil. Until October 2010, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since November 2025, he has put 121 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 74% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 12.19 in November 2025 to 10.27, a 16% improvement. Gabriel has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
