Paweł Szczur

2×2 · top 4.6% of 189,179 all-time · competing since October 2025 · 2025SZCZ07

Paweł Szczur has been competing for a year. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.97, set at GLS Gdańsk VI 2026, puts him in the top 4.6% of the 189,179 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 409th in Poland. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 10 competitions since October 2025, he has put 175 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 81% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 22.39 in October 2025 to 11.55, a 48% improvement. He has entered ten competitions, more competitions than 92% 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.
