Wally Kolcz

2×2 · top 76.4% of 186,767 all-time · competing since April 2019 · 2019KOLC04

Wally Kolcz has been competing for 7 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 9.63, set at Michigan 2019, puts him in the top 76.4% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 31,677th in the United States. Across 10 competitions since April 2019, he has put 76 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 25% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 2×2 best has come down from 18.32 in April 2019 to 9.63, a 47% improvement. Wally 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.
