3×3 · top 9.6% of 284,439 all-time · competing since March 2025 · 2025BAGU01
James Horace Hudierez Baguna has been competing for a year. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.71, set at Mix & Match at McDo Lacson 2025, puts him in the top 9.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,034th in the Philippines. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since March 2025, he has put 23 official solves on the record across one event. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. James has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
