Luis Fernando Landauro Salamanca
Square-1 · top 5.9% of 25,272 all-time · competing since February 2020 · 2020SALA02
Luis Fernando Landauro Salamanca has been competing for 6 years. His best event is the Square-1: a personal-best single of 9.94, set at Tres Estrellas 2023, puts him in the top 5.9% of the 25,272 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 12th in Argentina. Until August 2010, no official Square-1 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since February 2020, he has put 333 official solves on the record across eleven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 56% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 32.19 in February 2020 to 10.83, a 66% improvement. Luis has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% 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.
