Zixiang Wei (魏子翔) has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.74, set at Hangzhou Winter 2025, puts him in the top 9.7% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3,871st in China. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since July 2016, he has put 93 official solves on the record across five events.

Zixiang has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
