Maria Clara Rodrigues Garola Lima has been competing for 4 years. Her best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 2.05, set at Campeonato Brasileiro de Cubo Mágico 2025, puts her in the top 1.2% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 28th in Brazil. Until July 2011, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 45 competitions since March 2022, she has put 2,069 official solves on the record across twelve events.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
