Pyraminx · top 4.2% of 129,321 all-time · competing since April 2018 · 2018ANKH01

Temuulen Ankhbayar has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.17, set at Kostelec Autumn 2025, puts him in the top 4.2% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 34th in Mongolia. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 15 competitions since April 2018, he has put 251 official solves on the record across ten events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 80% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 30.92 in April 2018 to 11.67, a 62% improvement. Temuulen has entered 15 competitions, more competitions than 95% 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.
