Justin Chan

2×2 · top 30.1% of 189,179 all-time · competing since June 2018 · 2018CHAN33

Justin Chan has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 4.28, set at Liberty Science Center Open 2018, puts him in the top 30.1% of the 189,179 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 12,171st in the United States. Across 7 competitions since June 2018, he has put 83 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, an early reading from 7 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 48.95 in June 2018 to 29.59, a 40% improvement. Justin 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.
