Muyan Li (黎暮彦)

2×2 · top 6.6% of 186,767 all-time · competing since October 2017 · 2017LIMU02

Muyan Li (黎暮彦) has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.25, set at Shenzhen Cubing 10th Anniversary 2019, puts him in the top 6.6% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 938th in China. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 10 competitions since October 2017, he has put 288 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 84% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 21.31 in October 2017 to 10.40, a 51% improvement. Muyan has entered ten competitions, more competitions than 92% 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.
