Beginner Minesweeper Leaderboard
Classements compétitifs par nombre de trophées
Minesweeper world rankings compare the fastest ranked clears by time, 3BV/s, and efficiency. Filter by difficulty and season to study top Standard-mode results, or switch to the No-Guessing rankings for the logic-only pool. The current Beginner record in this category is 5.128s, set by rtrvt, and the 29 fastest ranked players average 38.4s.
Every ranked run below was played on the standard Beginner board: 9x9 cells, 10 mines, which works out to about 12.3 percent mine density. The table lists best verified time along with the 3BV of the board they solved and their 3BV/s, so you can see how a result was earned and not just how the clock ended.

What Counts as a Good Beginner Time
Beginner is the difficulty where a single wasted movement is visible in the final number, so the ladder is tight. Finishing a 9x9 board in under 10 seconds is a decent result and the point at which most players stop losing time to hesitation. Under 5 seconds is strong: opening click, cascade reading and finishing clicks have all been compressed into one continuous motion.
Below that the scale changes character. The fastest verified Beginner solve tracked by the external ranking authorities is roughly 1 second. That figure describes the global verified record lists maintained off this site - it is not a time on the table above, and our ranked pool is well behind it.
Treat the ladder as a range rather than a target. Beginner boards vary enough that the same player can post 4 and 9 seconds in one session, so judge yourself on your median rather than on the single time that reached the leaderboard.
3BV and 3BV/s on 9x9 Boards
3BV counts the minimum number of left clicks a board can be solved in. A 9x9 Beginner board usually lands somewhere between roughly 10 and 30 3BV, and that spread is huge in relative terms: a 12 3BV board can be finished in a third of the clicks a 28 3BV board demands, before either player has made a single mistake.
That is exactly why raw seconds are a poor way to compare Beginner players. Dividing 3BV by your time gives 3BV/s, which measures work done per second instead of luck received. Around 1.5 3BV/s is a decent Beginner rate, and 3.0 or higher is genuinely strong. Sorting the leaderboard by 3BV/s rewards the player who solved a heavy board quickly over the one who drew an easy one.
How to Climb the Beginner Leaderboard
A ranked Beginner run is largely decided by its first half second. An opening placed against a corner or an outside edge touches fewer hidden cells, so it tends to cascade further and leaves numbers that sit on a boundary rather than in open space. When the opening instead produces one isolated number, abandon the game and take the next one: on a board this short, restarting costs almost nothing, and grinding for a workable opening is a legitimate tactic here in a way it is not on larger boards.
After the cascade lands, ranking comes down to removing pauses. The lone-1 rule - one number, one hidden neighbour, therefore one mine - has to fire without conscious thought. Any hesitation there is your real gap on this leaderboard, not your click speed.

Points Clés
- Les classements sont triés par meilleur temps de complétion pour chaque combinaison de difficulté et de mode. Seule votre meilleure résolution unique compte.
- 3BV/s (valeur 3BV par seconde) mesure combien de groupes de cellules logiques vous avez nettoyés par seconde — c'est la métrique d'efficacité standard dans le démineur compétitif.
- L'efficacité est le pourcentage de vos clics qui étaient nécessaires — une efficacité plus élevée signifie moins de clics inutiles sur le marquage ou le nettoyage par accord.
- Le classement Standard autorise tous les styles de jeu légaux. Sans-Devinette est une catégorie séparée pour les plateaux entièrement résolvables sans deviner.
- Les classements se réinitialisent chaque saison — le classement affiche uniquement les meilleurs temps de cette saison. Les résultats des saisons passées sont archivés.
How to Improve Your Minesweeper Rank
Want to climb faster? Study the Minesweeper patterns guide and the efficiency & 3BV/s guide, then put it into practice on the Expert Minesweeper board.
- Une haute efficacité compte plus que la vitesse brute au sommet. Les joueurs les plus rapides ont généralement une efficacité de 90 %+ — chaque clic compte.
- Vérifiez les onglets Standard et Sans-Devinette pour votre rang. De nombreux joueurs se classent bien mieux dans un mode — connaître votre force comparative vous aide à décider où concourir pour les récompenses de saison.
- Soumettez un temps avant la fin de la saison. Les récompenses de saison vont aux joueurs les mieux classés à la coupure — une seule résolution classée sécurise votre placement de saison même si ce n'est pas un record personnel.
