Xincheng Li (李信城) has been competing for a year. His best event is the 3×3 one-handed: a personal-best single of 11.05, set at Beijing Only 3x3 2025, puts him in the top 1.9% of the 73,695 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 158th in China. Until July 2011, no official 3×3 one-handed solve in the world had been that fast. Across 2 competitions since May 2025, he has put 40 official solves on the record across two events. Xincheng 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.
