2×2 · top 6.3% of 186,767 all-time · competing since August 2016 · 2016LEIR01
Ryan Lei has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.21, set at Perth Summer 2017, puts him in the top 6.3% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 458th in Australia. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since August 2016, he has put 76 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 8% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 22.09 in August 2016 to 12.84, a 42% improvement. Ryan has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
