Lavender Badian-Parker
2×2 · top 8.2% of 186,767 all-time · competing since March 2023 · 2023BADI01
Lavender Badian-Parker has been competing for 4 years. Their best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.43, set at Greater Toronto 2024, puts them in the top 8.2% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 535th in Canada. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since March 2023, they have put 127 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, their 3×3 times vary about 17% around a typical one; 95% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. Their 3×3 best has come down from 17.83 in March 2023 to 11.55, a 35% improvement. Lavender has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% 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.
