Jerry Miao

3×3 · top 1.9% of 284,439 all-time · competing since June 2018 · 2018MIAO06

Jerry Miao has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 7.41, set at Syracuse Elite Cubing 2026, puts him in the top 1.9% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 188th in Canada. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since June 2018, he has put 127 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 67% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 18.87 in June 2018 to 7.41, a 61% improvement. Jerry has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% 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.
