Mirko Petrovic
Square-1 · top 7.2% of 25,272 all-time · competing since January 2023 · 2023PETR01
Mirko Petrovic has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Square-1: a personal-best single of 10.60, set at Calgary Side Events 2024, puts him in the top 7.2% of the 25,272 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 51st in Canada. Until August 2010, no official Square-1 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 12 competitions since January 2023, he has put 299 official solves on the record across 13 events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 8% around a typical one, steadier than 99% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 17.20 in January 2023 to 12.51, a 27% improvement. Mirko 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.
