Michael Christian Edmar Torio
3×3 · top 9.5% of 284,439 all-time · competing since May 2016 · 2016TORI01
Michael Christian Edmar Torio has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.68, set at Elyu Cube Clash 2024, puts him in the top 9.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,023rd in the Philippines. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since May 2016, he has put 61 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 7% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 15.34 in May 2016 to 10.68, a 30% improvement. Michael has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
