Peyton Johnson

2×2 · top 7.3% of 186,767 all-time · competing since August 2022 · 2022JOHN39

Peyton Johnson has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.33, set at Arkansolve 2023, puts him in the top 7.3% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,895th in the United States. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since August 2022, he has put 120 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one, an early reading from 9 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 22.19 in August 2022 to 13.21, a 40% improvement. Peyton has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
