Jinxu Li (李锦煦) has been competing for 7 years. His best event is the 3×3 one-handed: a personal-best single of 12.76, set at Zibo Open 2019, puts him in the top 4.0% of the 73,695 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 356th in China. Until January 2010, no official 3×3 one-handed solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since May 2019, he has put 189 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 72% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. Jinxu has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
