Prathick Dhanes R has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 2.79, set at NIT Trichy Cube Open 2023, puts him in the top 3.0% of the 130,891 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 155th in India. Until October 2010, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since December 2022, he has put 337 official solves on the record across eight events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 13.17 in December 2022 to 9.21, a 30% improvement. Prathick has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
