Lei Wang (王磊) has been competing for 12 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 2.73, set at China Championship 2017, puts him in the top 2.8% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 326th in China. Until October 2010, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 16 competitions since December 2014, he has put 525 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 76% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 20.91 in December 2014 to 9.12, a 56% improvement. Lei has entered 16 competitions, more competitions than 96% 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.
