Zibo Xuan (玄子博)

2×2 · top 15.2% of 186,767 all-time · competing since December 2018 · 2018XUAN06

Zibo Xuan (玄子博) has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 3.08, set at Beijing Winter 2019, puts him in the top 15.2% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,411th in China. Across 5 competitions since December 2018, he has put 78 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His Pyraminx best has come down from 15.59 in December 2018 to 9.94, a 36% improvement. Zibo has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
