Raza Ibrahim
3×3 · top 2.5% of 284,439 all-time · competing since May 2013 · 2013IBRA01
Raza Ibrahim has been competing for 13 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 7.81, set at Melbourne Summer 2014, puts him in the top 2.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 7th in Pakistan. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since May 2013, he has put 108 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 85% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 12.81 in May 2013 to 7.81, a 39% improvement. Raza has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
