Xena Larguinha has been competing for a year. Her best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.88, set at Quabbin Spring 2026, puts her in the top 4.1% of the 189,179 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,621st in the United States. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since August 2025, she has put 147 official solves on the record across five events.

Her 3×3 best has come down from 20.13 in August 2025 to 11.18, a 44% improvement. Xena has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% 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.
