Xilun Chi (遅熙倫) has been competing for 13 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.78, set at West Japan Big Cube 2013, puts him in the top 6.9% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,672nd in China. Until October 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 2 competitions since June 2013, he has put 41 official solves on the record across five events. His 5×5 best has come down from 1:47.31 in June 2013 to 1:34.65, a 12% improvement. Xilun has entered two competitions.

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.
