Paweł Urbański

Pyraminx · top 0.02% of 129,321 all-time · competing since October 2022 · 2022URBA02

Paweł Urbański has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 0.96, set at Puck Open 2026, puts him in the top 0.02% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 5th in Poland. Until June 2018, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 49 competitions since October 2022, he has put 2,985 official solves on the record across 15 events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 68% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 28 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 27.60 in October 2022 to 6.04, a 78% improvement. He has entered 49 competitions, more competitions than 99% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
