Klaudiusz Cieszyński has been competing for 13 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.85, set at Grudziadz Open 2015, puts him in the top 3.9% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 347th in Poland. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 18 competitions since February 2014, he has put 554 official solves on the record across seven events.

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.
