Vishnu Vijay

3×3 · top 14.0% of 288,433 all-time · competing since January 2014 · 2014VIJA02

Vishnu Vijay has been competing for 13 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 12.01, set at REC Cube Challenge 2015, puts him in the top 14.0% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,707th in India. Across 9 competitions since January 2014, he has put 135 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 87% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 11 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 29.64 in January 2014 to 12.01, a 59% improvement. Vishnu has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% 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.
