Rutvik Warkar has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.34, set at MathSoc Open 2018, puts him in the top 7.4% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 585th in India. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 12 competitions since October 2015, he has put 228 official solves on the record across five events.

His 2×2 best has come down from 4.64 in March 2016 to 2.34, a 50% improvement. Rutvik has entered twelve competitions, more competitions than 94% 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.
