Omar Benchbana

2×2 · top 90.9% of 186,767 all-time · competing since January 2019 · 2019BENC01

Omar Benchbana has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 15.25, set at Kirkkonummi Open 2019, puts him in the top 90.9% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 101st in Morocco. Across 6 competitions since January 2019, he has put 35 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 1:48.56 in January 2019 to 1:22.16, a 24% improvement. Omar 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.
