Mikhail Joseph Baldeo has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.98, set at Cube-bers in Iloilo 2026, puts him in the top 7.4% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 783rd in the Philippines. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since April 2023, he has put 113 official solves on the record across two events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 17.00 in April 2023 to 9.98, a 41% improvement. Mikhail has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
