Anderson Tatsch Dias - National Master Extraordinaire
Meet Anderson Tatsch Dias, a chess force to be reckoned with, proudly holding the title of National Master. Known online under the mysterious guise of Almeida1974 (because titles deserve a bit of mystery), Anderson has dazzled opponents with a blitz rating storming upwards of 2589, and rapid maneuvers hitting a striking 2437. If chess were a battlefield, Anderson would be the seasoned general leading the charge—only with fewer sabers and more knights.
Over the years, Anderson has shown exceptional prowess especially in blitz and bullet games, racking up thousands of matches, boasting impressive win counts (5,398 wins in blitz alone!) and an uncanny 100% win rate after losing a piece. It’s like Anderson commands an army of pawns to simply outwit fate. With an average of over 70 moves per win, patience isn’t just a virtue; it’s a strategic weapon in Anderson’s playbook. Endgames? Consider Anderson a master craftsman who delights in polishing off rivals with surgical precision.
Curiously, Anderson is a master of psychological warfare too, managing tilt levels low enough to keep calm while opponents might be yelling at their screens. Fun fact: Anderson’s “Comeback Rate” stands at an astonishing 89.72% — a true phoenix rising from pawns lost and positions sacrificed.
When not confounding opponents on chess.com, Anderson's favorite pastime might just be collecting wins against a colorful cast of challengers like suz99 (0% win rate—maybe they should train harder!), egam, and raffael_chess. Anderson’s style? A combination of cunning patience and explosive tactics, often winning more games with white than black, but making both colors look equally formidable.
Whether playing bullet at lightning speed or slowly conquering rapid games, Anderson Tatsch Dias is the chess world’s national treasure - a master not just of moves, but of turning the game into an art form... with a dash of fun and an occasional, well-timed rook sacrifice.
