Kamil Arif

2×2 · top 51.8% of 186,767 all-time · competing since January 2016 · 2016ARIF02

Kamil Arif has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 6.09, set at No Place For DNF Spring 2018, puts him in the top 51.8% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 21,136th in the United States. Across 6 competitions since January 2016, he has put 41 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 51.27 in January 2016 to 37.02, a 28% improvement. Kamil has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
