2×2 · top 0.72% of 186,767 all-time · competing since August 2021 · 2021SOKO03

Roman Sokolovskyi has been competing for 5 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.08, set at Hungarian Open 2023, puts him in the top 0.72% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 13th in Ukraine. Until November 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 73 competitions since August 2021, he has put 4,238 official solves on the record across 15 events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one; 94% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 16.37 in August 2021 to 7.68, a 53% improvement. Roman has entered 73 competitions, more competitions than 99% 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.
