Marcelo Haüptli Gessner

Pyraminx · top 81.7% of 130,891 all-time · competing since May 2025 · 2025GESS01

Marcelo Haüptli Gessner has been competing for a year. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 14.95, set at NC ao Cubo 2026, puts him in the top 81.7% of the 130,891 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,383rd in Brazil. Across 10 competitions since May 2025, he has put 137 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 80% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 2:01.13 in May 2025 to 54.82, a 55% improvement. Marcelo has entered ten competitions, more competitions than 92% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
