Robert William Ancco Lopez has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.16, set at Peru Nationals 2024, puts him in the top 5.2% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 218th in Peru. Until May 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since July 2023, he has put 157 official solves on the record across five events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 24.17 in July 2023 to 9.16, a 62% improvement. Robert has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% of everyone who has ever competed.

The story so far

Competitions

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.
