Lorenz Kerber
3×3 · top 7.3% of 284,439 all-time · competing since June 2018 · 2018KERB01
Lorenz Kerber has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.96, set at Franconia Fall 2019, puts him in the top 7.3% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 374th in Germany. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since June 2018, he has put 92 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 15.11 in June 2018 to 9.96, a 34% improvement. Lorenz has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
