Matej Bolta has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 0.85, set at Slovenian Nationals 2022, puts him in the top 0.29% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3rd in Slovenia.

His 3×3 best has come down from 18.35 in June 2015 to 8.28, a 55% improvement. Matej has entered 69 competitions, more competitions than 99% 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.
