Tamen Dutta has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 3.88, set at IVWS Cube Open 2023, puts him in the top 25.0% of the 189,179 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,185th in India. Across 12 competitions since November 2018, he has put 244 official solves on the record across nine events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one; 93% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 32.82 in November 2018 to 15.39, a 53% improvement. Tamen has entered twelve competitions, more competitions than 94% 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.
