Qi Chen (陈奇) has been competing for 12 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 23.96, set at Taiwan Championship 2017, puts him in the top 50.3% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 16,159th in China. Across 5 competitions since July 2014, he has put 33 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 21% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs.

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.
