Lana Bedek

3×3 · top 0.37% of 288,433 all-time · competing since November 2024 · 2024BEDE01

Lana Bedek has been competing for a year. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 5.78, set at Bibinje Open 2026, puts her in the top 0.37% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2nd in Croatia. Until June 2011, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 17 competitions since November 2024, she has put 438 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 67% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. Her 3×3 best has come down from 9.92 in November 2024 to 5.78, a 42% improvement. Lana has entered 17 competitions, more competitions than 96% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
