Pranav Akasapu has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 13.70, set at Bangalore Open 2018, puts him in the top 19.9% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,508th in India. Across 3 competitions since February 2018, he has put 56 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 19.10 in February 2018 to 13.70, a 28% improvement. Pranav has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
