Mien-Heng Chu (鞠綿恆) has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 7.81, set at Chien Kuo Cubing Party 2024, puts him in the top 2.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 142nd in Chinese Taipei. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since December 2022, he has put 50 official solves on the record across two events.

He has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
