Yunhan Yao (姚云瀚) has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 2.20, set at Hangzhou Autumn 2019, puts him in the top 1.5% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 172nd in China. Until July 2011, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 17 competitions since June 2018, he has put 510 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 91% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 25.91 in June 2018 to 7.74, a 70% improvement. Yunhan has entered 17 competitions, more competitions than 96% 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.
