Meet David Vargas, a chess enthusiast who has danced with the kings and queens of the 64 squares with style, grit, and a pinch of humor. Known online as Aledvak0, his journey through the ranks of chess has been nothing short of a rollercoaster ride—complete with brilliant checkmates, tough setbacks, and plenty of epic battles against worthy foes.

Career Highlights

David's chess rating has steadily climbed over the years, peaking impressively in 2025 with a Rapid rating soaring up to 2305, a Blitz highest score of 2425, and a Bullet peak at a swift 2302. His winning streaks have been jaw-dropping—he once reeled off 10 consecutive wins, proving that sometimes he’s just too hot for his opponents to handle.

Playing Style & Personality

With an endgame frequency close to 78%, David knows how to patiently bring a game to its victorious conclusion, often grinding down opponents with methodical precision.

His chess philosophy? Resign early only if your coffee runs out, otherwise battle on!

David's games reveal a balanced attack whether playing White or Black with win rates just above 50% on both sides, showing his versatility. He averages around 68 moves per win and 77 moves per loss, which means he's ready to joust as long as needed (or as long as his internet connection holds).

Record Against Opponents

While David has comfortably defeated many foes with a win rate hovering around 50-53% across all formats, some opponents have managed to keep him on his toes.

When not busy cornering kings or finagling pawns, David enjoys analyzing openings under the amusing codename "Top Secret." Legend says he keeps these strategic weapons under lock and key, like secret chess ninja moves ready to stun his next opponent. His low tilt factor of 9 suggests he keeps his cool under pressure—though one might suspect he secretly laughs at blunders like a mischievous chess ghost.
