Noé Mode

3×3 · top 6.6% of 284,439 all-time · competing since September 2016 · 2016MODE01

Noé Mode has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.69, set at Champagne Open 2023, puts him in the top 6.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 362nd in France. Until November 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since September 2016, he has put 74 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 18.01 in September 2016 to 9.69, a 46% improvement. He has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
