Ian Diaz

Pyraminx · top 17.5% of 129,321 all-time · competing since December 2022 · 2022DIAZ24

Ian Diaz has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 5.66, set at Pretzel Mania Summer 2024, puts him in the top 17.5% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 4,638th in the United States. Across 6 competitions since December 2022, he has put 65 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, an early reading from 7 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 29.58 in December 2022 to 25.20, a 15% improvement. Ian has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
