Marcos Aparicio Iliquin has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.56, set at Palacio del Cubo 2019, puts him in the top 3.9% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 144th in Peru. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 17 competitions since February 2017, he has put 423 official solves on the record across four events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 25.97 in February 2017 to 8.56, a 67% improvement. Marcos has entered 17 competitions, more competitions than 96% 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.
