Mateo Damian Coitinho Gabarain

2×2 · top 7.1% of 186,767 all-time · competing since September 2021 · 2021GABA01

Mateo Damian Coitinho Gabarain has been competing for 5 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.31, set at Fátima en Montevideo 2024, puts him in the top 7.1% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 20th in Uruguay. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 18 competitions since September 2021, he has put 562 official solves on the record across 13 events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 70% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 8 DNFs. His 2×2 best has come down from 7.53 in September 2021 to 2.31, a 69% improvement. Mateo has entered 18 competitions, more competitions than 96% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 2×2. 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.
