Víctor Gálvez

3×3 · top 1.0% of 284,439 all-time · competing since December 2019 · 2019GALV10

Víctor Gálvez has been competing for 7 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 6.72, set at Altavista NxN 2023, puts him in the top 1.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 5th in Uruguay. Until January 2011, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 33 competitions since December 2019, he has put 1,597 official solves on the record across 14 events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 71% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 18 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 14.21 in December 2019 to 6.72, a 53% improvement. He has entered 33 competitions, more competitions than 98% 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.
