Oscar Johannessen

2×2 · top 8.6% of 186,767 all-time · competing since October 2013 · 2013JOHA04

Oscar Johannessen has been competing for 13 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.47, set at Kjeller Open 2014, puts him in the top 8.6% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 131st in Norway. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 2 competitions since October 2013, he has put 33 official solves on the record across two events. His 3×3 best has come down from 21.68 in October 2013 to 13.74, a 37% improvement. Oscar has entered two competitions.

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.
