Huaizhen Lü (吕怀真) has been competing for 9 months. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 2.02, set at Beijing Autumn Rivalry 2026, puts him in the top 1.2% of the 130,891 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 133rd in China. Until July 2011, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since February 2026, he has put 259 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 58% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 9.73 in February 2026 to 7.19, a 26% improvement. Huaizhen has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
