Temuulen Janchiv

Pyraminx · top 2.8% of 129,321 all-time · competing since January 2019 · 2019TEMU01

Temuulen Janchiv has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 2.73, set at Umnugovi Cube Day 2025, puts him in the top 2.8% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 24th in Mongolia. Until October 2010, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 21 competitions since January 2019, he has put 553 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one; 59% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 8 DNFs. His 2×2 best has come down from 23.19 in January 2019 to 1.98, a 91% improvement. Temuulen has entered 21 competitions, more competitions than 97% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 2×2. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
