2×2 · top 32.0% of 186,767 all-time · competing since November 2015 · 2015MERI02
Nelson Mérida has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 4.43, set at IGA Rubik 2016, puts him in the top 32.0% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 203rd in Guatemala. Across 2 competitions since November 2015, he has put 50 official solves on the record across four events.

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.
