Important Speedcubers

[CT-6666]

Hello everyone
I am doing a presentation in school about speedcubing. In there I want to include a chapter about most important cubers. And there I need help who should I include in there. I think of Feliks, Max and Tymon, cause I don't know that many more, but I am sure there are many more worth including in the list. Pls help me get a good list for non cubers.
Kind Regards

I don't know if non cubers will even recognize feliks, max, or tymon. I mean you can include the people who invented methods like
Gilles Roux or Jessica Fridrich

100% Agree with Gilles Roux and Jessica Fridrich. Here's my GOAT speedsolver list:
Feliks Zemdegs
Martin Egdal
Max Park
Tymon
Marcin Kowalczyk would be interesting to include

 

[Garf]

Jessica Fridrich
Gilles Roux
Max Park
Feliks Zemdegs
Tymon
Max Siauw
Jay
Youcubers such as Jperm, Tingman, Speedcubereview, Cube Solve hero, Crimson, etc.
Yusheng Du

You can't give a presentation on speedcubing without mentioning Jessica Fridrich, Lars Petrus, Yu Nakajima, and that Feliks kid.

Here's a few that I've not seen anyone mention yet, but are/were super influential

• Ron van Bruchem and Tyson Mao (Founders of the WCA)
• Chris Hardwick (Known for his BLD accomplishments)
• Chris Tran (Early ZBLL user, Magnets, Cubicle Labs, ZZ-CT and probably more)
• David Singmaster ("Notes On The Rubik's Cube" invented our current notation)
• Anthony Brooks (Imo, he's most known for his media appearances, such as solving on game shows and in car commercials)

Why not Z3

I think as Inventor he was very important for speedcubing but I wouldn't name him a speedcuber.

Does anyone know if he ever solved his own puzzle timed and if yes how fast he could do it?
I don't even know if he was still interested in solving his puzzle after he invented it

Why not Z3

I said "etc."
