2×2 · top 9.3% of 186,767 all-time · competing since July 2022 · 2022SILV23

Marina Rodrigues da Silva has been competing for 4 years. Her best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.54, set at SESI Santos 2025, puts her in the top 9.3% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 306th in Brazil. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 11 competitions since July 2022, she has put 96 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 17% around a typical one; 94% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. Her 3×3 best has come down from 23.09 in July 2022 to 12.60, a 45% improvement. Marina has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% 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.
