3×3 · top 9.0% of 284,439 all-time · competing since May 2025 · 2025MADA04
Viaan Madan has been competing for a year. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.52, set at Mumbai Cubing Sprint 2026, puts him in the top 9.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,013th in India. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since May 2025, he has put 77 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 60% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 28.01 in May 2025 to 10.52, a 62% improvement. Viaan has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
