Nino Hettwer

2×2 · top 43.4% of 186,767 all-time · competing since December 2012 · 2012HETT01

Nino Hettwer has been competing for 14 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 5.33, set at Frankfurt Cube Days 2014, puts him in the top 43.4% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,408th in Germany. Across 6 competitions since December 2012, he has put 73 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 32.78 in December 2012 to 25.93, a 21% improvement. Nino has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
