Victor Hugo Corrales Esquivel has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.10, set at TCG Space II Santa Anita 2023, puts him in the top 5.1% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 214th in Peru. Until May 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 10 competitions since August 2022, he has put 149 official solves on the record across six events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 25.27 in August 2022 to 9.10, a 64% improvement. Victor has entered ten competitions, more competitions than 92% 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.
