2×2 · top 7.9% of 186,767 all-time · competing since June 2023 · 2023BEAU03
Pierre-Luc Beaudoin has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.39, set at Ottawa Spring 2024, puts him in the top 7.9% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 513th in Canada. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since June 2023, he has put 183 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 87% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 15.88 in June 2023 to 12.76, a 20% improvement. He has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% 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.
