Michalis Kerasotis has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the Square-1: a personal-best single of 8.91, set at Greek Nationals 2025, puts him in the top 4.4% of the 25,272 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2nd in Greece. Until October 2010, no official Square-1 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 12 competitions since December 2023, he has put 347 official solves on the record across 15 events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 81% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 13.75 in December 2023 to 11.64, a 15% improvement. Michalis has entered twelve competitions, more competitions than 94% 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.
