Lianghui Li (李亮辉) has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 1.71, set at Lonay Cube 2024, puts him in the top 0.69% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 76th in China. Until April 2012, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 17 competitions since March 2016, he has put 552 official solves on the record across nine events.

His Pyraminx best has come down from 5.80 in August 2016 to 1.71, a 71% improvement. Lianghui has entered 17 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.
