Nguyễn Đức Mạnh
3×3 · top 0.84% of 284,439 all-time · competing since April 2025 · 2025MANH01
Nguyễn Đức Mạnh has been competing for a year. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 6.49, set at Arena HCMC Spring 2026, puts him in the top 0.84% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 41st in Vietnam. Until May 2011, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 2 competitions since April 2025, he has put 40 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 9.80 in April 2025 to 6.49, a 34% improvement. He has entered two 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.
