Sebastián André Rojas Pestaña has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.21, set at PUCV al Cubo 2025, puts him in the top 3.2% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 56th in Chile. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 10 competitions since September 2022, he has put 181 official solves on the record across four events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 10.96 in September 2022 to 8.21, a 25% improvement. He has entered ten competitions, more competitions than 92% 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.
