Prashob Chandran has been competing for 12 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.46, set at SCMU Cognition Open 2015, puts him in the top 8.5% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 693rd in India. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since December 2014, he has put 150 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 71% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 2×2 best has come down from 8.47 in December 2014 to 2.46, a 71% improvement. Prashob has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
