Pyraminx · top 8.0% of 129,321 all-time · competing since October 2019 · 2019SOUT01
Lucas de Lima Souto has been competing for 7 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 4.06, set at UFRB 2026, puts him in the top 8.0% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 189th in Brazil. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since October 2019, he has put 109 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 87% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 48.20 in October 2019 to 11.37, a 76% improvement. Lucas 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.
