Viraaj Sharma

3×3 · top 2.2% of 288,433 all-time · competing since October 2025 · 2025SHAR42

Viraaj Sharma has been competing for a year. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 7.63, set at Mumbai Monsoon Cube Fiesta 2026, puts him in the top 2.2% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 201st in India. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since October 2025, he has put 88 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 11.55 in October 2025 to 7.63, a 34% improvement. Viraaj has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
