Junye Qiu (邱俊烨)

3×3 one-handed · top 3.9% of 74,621 all-time · competing since May 2019 · 2019QIUJ02

Junye Qiu (邱俊烨) has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 3×3 one-handed: a personal-best single of 12.62, set at Beijing Autumn Rivalry 2026, puts him in the top 3.9% of the 74,621 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 349th in China. Until January 2010, no official 3×3 one-handed solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since May 2019, he has put 181 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 52% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 19.25 in May 2019 to 8.92, a 54% improvement. Junye has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% 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.
