Allan Salvacion (ACOUSTIC825) - Chess Enthusiast Extraordinaire
Meet Allan Salvacion, a chess warrior known in the digital arena as ACOUSTIC825. With a Rapid rating that soared up to 1520 in 2023 and a Blitz peak just shy of 1300 in 2025, Allan is not your average pawn-pusher. This player combines tactical wizardry with occasional bouts of early resignation (a humble 1.56%), proving that even masters can have moments of mercy.
The Journey So Far
Starting off modestly with a Rapid rating near a casual 1026, Allan quickly ramped up to a respectable 1493 by the end of 2023. In Blitz, the battles have been fierce—over 2,400 games played across recent years, with a win count that nearly matches the losses, showing true grit and endurance on the board.

When down a piece, this sharp tactician flips the script with a perfect 100% win-rate—because giving up simply isn’t in the vocabulary. Move counts hover around 69 per win, indicating a battle of wits and endurance rather than quick blunders.
