3×3 · top 3.5% of 284,439 all-time · competing since February 2018 · 2018LELI01
Lim Yong Le has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.40, set at Singapore Twist and Tips July 2026, puts him in the top 3.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 100th in Singapore. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since February 2018, he has put 20 official solves on the record across two events. His 3×3 best has come down from 12.44 in February 2018 to 8.40, a 32% improvement. Lim has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
