Tsung-Che Lee (李宗哲) has been competing for 13 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 7.15, set at Taichung Cube Open 2016, puts him in the top 1.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 84th in Chinese Taipei. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 44 competitions since August 2013, he has put 1,187 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 66% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 15.76 in August 2013 to 7.15, a 55% improvement. He has entered 44 competitions, more competitions than 99% 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.
