Robert Bator IM

Robert Bator - International Master of the Chessboard

Meet Robert Bator, better known by the online chess cosmos as aidnet, an International Master who dances brilliantly across the 64 squares. With a tactical mind sharp enough to slice through even the most tangled positions, Robert has not only earned a prestigious FIDE IM title but has developed a reputation for both resilience and flair.

A Career in Numbers

Robert’s blitz prowess is impressive: peaking at an eye-watering 2693 rating in October 2019, he dazzles with a near 50% win rate over thousands of games, proving that speed doesn't dull his strategic edge. His bullet chess play is no less fearsome with a top rating of 2267, and a stellar win rate exceeding 94%. In rapid games, he's equally comfortable, boasting an 80% win rate at a peak rating of 2078.

Playing Style & Psychological Resilience

Known for an early resignation rate of just 0.8%, Robert fights on with relentless endurance, enjoying an endgame frequency above 84%—because why quit when the real fun begins? His average moves per win hover around 77, so if you get into a battle of wits, prepare for a drawn-out thriller.

Psychology is part of his game too: a tilt factor of 12 suggests he sometimes visits the tempestuous seas of frustration, but his incredible comeback rate of 86.79% reveals a tenacious spirit that refuses to go quietly into the night. If Robert loses a piece, he still wins nearly half the time—no wonder opponents get nervous!

Notable Streaks & Opponents

Robert has had the pleasure (and pain) of both a 12-game winning streak and, equally challengingly, a 12-game losing streak. And if you’re curious about the adversaries who’ve seen the most of him, names like milostb and dimailuka pop up frequently - friendly rivals who have shared many battles over the years.

Highlight: The Art of Victory

On January 27, 2023, Robert secured one of his recent wins with an elegant demonstration of skill in a heated Caro-Kann Defense. Outmaneuvering his opponent’s counterattacks, he clinched victory on time while demonstrating fine positional understanding—a hallmark of his style.

When not Playing Chess...

While we don’t have direct intel on Robert’s off-board antics, one imagines a player so adept at calculating complex lines is either meticulously analyzing the mysteries of the universe or sneakily plotting a strategic pizza order. Perhaps both.
