Gustavo Copaga

2×2 · top 1.4% of 186,767 all-time · competing since May 2015 · 2015COPA02

Gustavo Copaga has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.30, set at Speed Challenge Santa Cruz 2019, puts him in the top 1.4% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 8th in Bolivia. Until November 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 14 competitions since May 2015, he has put 505 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 51% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 28.13 in May 2015 to 9.32, a 67% improvement. Gustavo has entered 14 competitions, more competitions than 95% 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.
