Yunus Emre Varkal has been competing for 13 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 2.98, set at Marmara Spring 2018, puts him in the top 3.6% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 26th in Turkey. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since February 2014, he has put 118 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, an early reading from 7 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 14.58 in February 2014 to 11.03, a 24% improvement. Yunus has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
