Mirko Tsakarissianos
Pyraminx · top 8.0% of 130,891 all-time · competing since November 2017 · 2017TSAK02
Mirko Tsakarissianos has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 4.06, set at Italian Championship 2018, puts him in the top 8.0% of the 130,891 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 173rd in Italy. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since November 2017, he has put 168 official solves on the record across eleven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 77% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 23.46 in November 2017 to 11.74, a 50% improvement. Mirko has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
