Harrison Blanchard

2×2 · top 8.2% of 186,767 all-time · competing since July 2022 · 2022BLAN06

Harrison Blanchard has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.43, set at Northside Spring Saturday 2022, puts him in the top 8.2% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 616th in Australia. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since July 2022, he has put 259 official solves on the record across eleven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 56% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 20.18 in July 2022 to 11.90, a 41% improvement. Harrison has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
