Quan-Huan Liu (劉權桓)
2×2 · top 3.4% of 186,767 all-time · competing since March 2013 · 2013LIUQ01
Quan-Huan Liu (劉權桓) has been competing for 13 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.77, set at Kaohsiung Open 2016, puts him in the top 3.4% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 85th in Chinese Taipei. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since March 2013, he has put 126 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 6 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 56.44 in March 2013 to 22.19, a 61% improvement. He 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.
