I-Hsun Li (李奕勳) has been competing for 14 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 7.51, set at Kaohsiung Summer Open 2014, puts him in the top 2.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 115th in Chinese Taipei. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 34 competitions since August 2012, he has put 1,049 official solves on the record across nine events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 83% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 15.00 in August 2012 to 7.51, a 50% improvement. He has entered 34 competitions, more competitions than 98% 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.
