Pyraminx · top 8.4% of 129,321 all-time · competing since July 2024 · 2024LINI02
Nik Zahra Arissa Binti Nik Li has been competing for 2 years. Her best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 4.14, set at Rubik's WCA Asian Championship 2024, puts her in the top 8.4% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 160th in Malaysia. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since July 2024, she has put 132 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. That figure sets aside her 2 DNFs. Her 2×2 best has come down from 9.09 in July 2024 to 2.94, a 68% improvement. Nik has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% 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.
