3×3 blindfolded · top 1.4% of 12,178 all-time · competing since November 2015 · 2015AGRA03
Ishaan Agrawal has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the 3×3 blindfolded: a personal-best single of 20.02, set at Please Be Quiet Reno 2017, puts him in the top 1.4% of the 12,178 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 31st in the United States. Until November 2016, no official 3×3 blindfolded solve in the world had been that fast. Across 35 competitions since November 2015, he has put 207 official solves on the record across twelve events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 17% around a typical one; 97% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 14 DNFs. His 3×3 blindfolded best has come down from 1:09.37 in February 2016 to 20.02, a 71% improvement. Ishaan has entered 35 competitions, more competitions than 99% 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.
