3×3 · top 0.6% of 284,439 all-time · competing since September 2017 · 2017WANJ09

Jie Wang (王杰) has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 6.18, set at Shaoxing Morning 2021, puts him in the top 0.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 218th in China. Until June 2011, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since September 2017, he has put 158 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one; 92% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 34.72 in September 2017 to 6.18, an 82% improvement. Jie has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
