Nabil Goerge Talamas has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.88, set at High Gate Irbid 2023, puts him in the top 4.1% of the 189,179 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 6th in Jordan. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since July 2023, he has put 168 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one; 60% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 21.60 in July 2023 to 15.56, a 28% improvement. Nabil has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
