Xuanle Wu (吴轩乐)
2×2 · top 1.9% of 186,767 all-time · competing since August 2018 · 2018WUXU01
Xuanle Wu (吴轩乐) has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.45, set at Nanchang Spring 2025, puts him in the top 1.9% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 221st in China. Until November 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since August 2018, he has put 200 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one; 90% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 5 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 9.21 in August 2018 to 8.03, a 13% improvement. Xuanle has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% 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.
