Lucas Benito Rolando has been competing for 16 years. His best event is the 3×3 blindfolded: a personal-best single of 36.93, set at UC3M Leganés Open 2025, puts him in the top 6.0% of the 12,178 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 10th in Spain. Until August 2009, no official 3×3 blindfolded solve in the world had been that fast. Across 12 competitions since December 2010, he has put 511 official solves on the record across twelve events.

The story so far

Competitions

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.
