Andres Perez Fadon (aka andres008)

Meet Andres Perez Fadon, a versatile chess player who has danced through the ranks of Blitz, Rapid, Bullet, and Daily games with a mix of grit, strategy, and just the right pinch of humor. Starting with humble ratings near 1000 in Blitz back in 2014, Andres’ passion and dedication have propelled him to peak Blitz ratings surpassing 1800, and a Rapid high cresting over 2100 – evidence that this player doesn’t just play, they fight for every point.

Playing Style & Strengths

Known as a fierce endgame enthusiast, Andres loves battles that stretch on (with an average of nearly 70 moves per win!), proving that patience is truly a virtue on the board. A comeback artist at heart, with an astounding 85% success rate clawing back from behind, and a nearly perfect 99% win rate even after losing a piece (talk about turning setbacks into masterpieces). However, don’t confuse resilience for recklessness—his early resignation rate sits at a modest 3.29%, showing he knows when to fight and when to conserve energy for the next encounter.

Favorite Openings - A Certain French Flair

If you ever want to spot Andres on the board, look for French Defense variations, especially the Exchange and the intriguing Paulsen Milner Barry Gambit—where he boasts win rates above 50%! Queens Gambit variations also feature prominently in his playbook, with impressive unbeaten runs that make opponents either wary or simply resigned (pun intended). From Blitz to Bullet, his repertoire is a rich blend of classical and aggressive lines, with a dash of surprise tactics thrown in.

Memorable Matches

Andres’ most recent victory was a stylish win by resignation in a 3-minute +2 seconds game against the player "Aito777." The game showcased his patience and positional understanding, culminating in a queen promotion and steady pressure that left his opponent no choice but to concede. But we humans all have off days: his latest losses include a tough time defeat on the clock in a Reti Opening battle and a mate loss in a Queens Pawn Zukertort Variation game.

Psychological Nuances & Quirks

Despite a tilt factor of 9, which suggests Andres can be a bit emotional after a loss (who isn’t?!), his overall mental toughness shines through with consistent results across different times and days of play. Fun fact: his best hour to snag a win hovers around 11 AM and he apparently never misses a beat at 7 AM —early riser or just a caffeine-fueled grandmaster in disguise?

Opponent Report Card

Andres has a knack for dominating certain rivals with perfect (or near-perfect) win rates against several opponents. And for those he’s struggled with—well, every chess hero has rivals that keep the fires burning! Whether facing the notorious karlo0602 (a 69% win rate) or battling new challengers, Andres continues to sharpen his tactical sword one game at a time.

Final Thoughts

With an ever-evolving style and a chess journey full of ups, downs, and funny blunders, Andres Perez Fadon reminds us all that chess is as much about passion and persistence as it is about pawns and pins. If you ever get a chance to play him, bring your best moves—and maybe a good sense of humor.
