Luke Silva Zambrano

3×3 · top 9.4% of 284,439 all-time · competing since June 2022 · 2022ZAMB03

Luke Silva Zambrano has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.66, set at Guayaco Cubing 2023, puts him in the top 9.4% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 90th in Ecuador. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since June 2022, he has put 53 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 9% around a typical one, an early reading from 9 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 12.36 in June 2022 to 10.66, a 14% improvement. Luke has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
