Xingjian Tian (田行健)

3×3 · top 56.6% of 284,439 all-time · competing since August 2017 · 2017TIAN11

Xingjian Tian (田行健) has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 26.86, set at Hefei Summer 2018, puts him in the top 56.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 17,569th in China. Across 5 competitions since August 2017, he has put 48 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 41.61 in August 2017 to 26.86, a 35% improvement. Xingjian has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
