Matias Chong

2×2 · top 19.6% of 186,767 all-time · competing since May 2017 · 2017CHON03

Matias Chong has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 3.45, set at Sydney Winter 2017, puts him in the top 19.6% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,482nd in Australia. Across 5 competitions since May 2017, he has put 71 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 25.61 in May 2017 to 14.39, a 44% improvement. Matias has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
