Mikołaj Gniady

3×3 · top 4.1% of 284,439 all-time · competing since July 2021 · 2021GNIA01

Mikołaj Gniady has been competing for 5 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.68, set at Cube4fun in Gorlice 2023, puts him in the top 4.1% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 405th in Poland. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since July 2021, he has put 120 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 13.59 in July 2021 to 8.68, a 36% improvement. He has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
