Seungche Yu has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 12.63, set at Keep Portland Weird 2017, puts him in the top 16.1% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 8,639th in the United States. Across 3 competitions since August 2016, he has put 41 official solves on the record across two events.

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.
