Yi Jiang (蒋羿) has been competing for 12 years. His best event is the 5×5: a personal-best single of 1:05.07, set at Chengdu Open 2018, puts him in the top 8.4% of the 40,792 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 400th in China. Until August 2010, no official 5×5 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since May 2014, he has put 115 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 16.46 in May 2014 to 10.60, a 36% improvement. Yi has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
