3×3 · top 5.1% of 284,439 all-time · competing since January 2014 · 2014RAKS01

Sayee Rakshith has been competing for 13 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.09, set at Indian Nationals 2015, puts him in the top 5.1% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 535th in India. Until May 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since January 2014, he has put 269 official solves on the record across ten events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, steadier than 95% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 16.53 in January 2014 to 9.09, a 45% improvement. Sayee has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
