Henri Dopatka has been competing for a year. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 0.74, set at CuBonn Open 2026, puts him in the top 0.16% of the 189,179 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 7th in Germany. Until November 2011, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 12 competitions since January 2025, he has put 546 official solves on the record across twelve events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 14.68 in January 2025 to 7.49, a 49% improvement. Henri has entered twelve competitions, more competitions than 94% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
