Sławomir Kapka has been competing for 16 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.31, set at Poznan Open 2011, puts him in the top 1.4% of the 189,179 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 163rd in Poland. Until November 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 11 competitions since April 2010, he has put 290 official solves on the record across nine events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 19.81 in April 2010 to 8.67, a 56% improvement. He has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% 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.
