Noé Lauener
2×2 · top 4.1% of 186,767 all-time · competing since September 2018 · 2018LAUE02
Noé Lauener has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.89, set at Swisscubing Cup I 2026, puts him in the top 4.1% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 68th in Switzerland. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since September 2018, he has put 125 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, steadier than 98% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 27.02 in September 2018 to 14.95, a 45% improvement. He has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
