Square-1 · top 4.2% of 25,272 all-time · competing since November 2016 · 2016CRUZ28
Pablo Illanes Cruz has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the Square-1: a personal-best single of 8.80, set at Melipilla Open 2018, puts him in the top 4.2% of the 25,272 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 13th in Chile. Until October 2010, no official Square-1 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since November 2016, he has put 174 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one; 52% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 17.95 in November 2016 to 10.88, a 39% improvement. Pablo has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% 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.
