Kyle Punguh Misigo has been competing for a year. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 4.35, set at Kenya Legacy Twist 2025, puts him in the top 9.4% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3rd in Kenya. Until September 2006, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since October 2024, he has put 161 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one; 55% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 28.50 in October 2024 to 19.89, a 30% improvement. Kyle has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
