Zhantore Ganiuly has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.41, set at Cubing Kazakhstan Nationals 2019, puts him in the top 8.0% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 76th in Kazakhstan. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since September 2018, he has put 192 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 59% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 21.15 in September 2018 to 13.01, a 38% improvement. Zhantore has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
