Krishanu Dutta
Skewb · top 9.2% of 74,164 all-time · competing since June 2022 · 2022DUTT03
Krishanu Dutta has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 3.73, set at 7th Guwahati Open 2026, puts him in the top 9.2% of the 74,164 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 238th in India. Until February 2014, no official Skewb solve in the world had been that fast. Across 11 competitions since June 2022, he has put 277 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 74% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 5 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 31.30 in June 2022 to 12.18, a 61% improvement. Krishanu has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
