Pyraminx · top 5.2% of 130,891 all-time · competing since September 2017 · 2017ENGE04
Noah Lucas Engel has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.42, set at Kublördag Jönköping XIII - 2026, puts him in the top 5.2% of the 130,891 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 136th in Sweden. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since September 2017, he has put 137 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 38.71 in September 2017 to 14.90, a 62% improvement. Noah has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
