Ian Suh has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.67, set at Bay Area Speedcubin' 41 2023, puts him in the top 9.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 5,162nd in the United States. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 14 competitions since September 2022, he has put 129 official solves on the record across three events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 14.54 in September 2022 to 10.67, a 27% improvement. Ian has entered 14 competitions, more competitions than 95% 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.
