2×2 · top 7.5% of 186,767 all-time · competing since July 2016 · 2016SILH01
Martin Šilha has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.35, set at Prague Open 2017, puts him in the top 7.5% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 93rd in the Czech Republic. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since July 2016, he has put 189 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 2×2 best has come down from 6.05 in July 2016 to 2.35, a 61% improvement. Martin has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
