Leonardo López Cianca
3×3 · top 5.1% of 284,439 all-time · competing since September 2024 · 2024CIAN01
Leonardo López Cianca has been competing for a year. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.11, set at Minerva Zapopan 2025, puts him in the top 5.1% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 268th in Mexico. Until May 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since September 2024, he has put 154 official solves on the record across twelve events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 9% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 4×4 best has come down from 49.90 in May 2025 to 39.43, a 21% improvement. Leonardo has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
