2×2 · top 6.9% of 186,767 all-time · competing since March 2022 · 2022JOHN09
Vidar Johnsson has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.28, set at Cuboss Open 2024, puts him in the top 6.9% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 237th in Sweden. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 10 competitions since March 2022, he has put 173 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 19% around a typical one; 99% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 2×2 best has come down from 9.81 in April 2022 to 2.28, a 77% improvement. Vidar has entered ten competitions, more competitions than 92% 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.
