3×3 · top 26.4% of 284,439 all-time · competing since May 2017 · 2017YURO02

Rongxiang Yu (余荣翔) has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 15.58, set at Zhongshan Children's Cube Day 2019, puts him in the top 26.4% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 9,875th in China. Across 4 competitions since May 2017, he has put 84 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 2×2 best has come down from 5.72 in May 2017 to 4.19, a 27% improvement. Rongxiang has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
