Héctor Arévalo

3×3 · top 4.4% of 288,433 all-time · competing since January 2017 · 2017AREV02

Héctor Arévalo has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.77, set at Los Ángeles Invierno 2018, puts him in the top 4.4% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 87th in Chile. Until May 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 2 competitions since January 2017, he has put 64 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 16.57 in January 2017 to 8.77, a 47% improvement. He has entered two competitions.

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.
