Shriram Kiran

2×2 · top 27.4% of 186,767 all-time · competing since February 2018 · 2018KIRA02

Shriram Kiran has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 4.07, set at Forum Monsoon Open 2019, puts him in the top 27.4% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,376th in India. Across 13 competitions since February 2018, he has put 184 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 65% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 2×2 best has come down from 22.83 in February 2018 to 4.07, an 82% improvement. Shriram has entered 13 competitions, more competitions than 94% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
