Lucas Huang
2×2 · top 7.5% of 186,767 all-time · competing since December 2021 · 2021HUAN39
Lucas Huang has been competing for 5 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.35, set at Melbourne Trilogy Sunday 2022, puts him in the top 7.5% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 558th in Australia. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since December 2021, he has put 78 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 22% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His Pyraminx best has come down from 16.31 in December 2021 to 8.19, a 50% improvement. Lucas 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.
