Jake Invaso

2×2 · top 7.6% of 189,179 all-time · competing since November 2017 · 2017INVA01

Jake Invaso has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.36, set at Melbourne Winter 2018, puts him in the top 7.6% of the 189,179 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 578th in Australia. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since November 2017, he has put 82 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 37.33 in November 2017 to 16.06, a 57% improvement. Jake has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
