Leonel Alejandro Amato, “AngelDeLaSoledad”

Leonel Alejandro Amato, known online as AngelDeLaSoledad, is a National Master whose chess profile is built around speed, persistence, and an apparent willingness to ask the clock uncomfortable questions. Although the data shows activity in several formats, blitz is the clearest home turf.

A Speed-Chess Specialist

AngelDeLaSoledad has recorded 311 blitz games, 2,216 bullet games, and 19 rapid games in the available statistics. The overall record includes 1,062 wins, 1,347 losses, and 137 draws, suggesting a player who prefers decisive battles to quiet afternoons of theoretical housekeeping.

The player’s longest winning streak reached 13 games, while the data also records an impressive 85.31% comeback rate. In other words, losing a piece may be less a disaster and more an invitation to make the position dramatically inconvenient for everyone involved.

Opening Repertoire

With White, AngelDeLaSoledad frequently turns to the unconventional Amazon Attack, scoring especially well in blitz with its Siberian Attack branch. The main Amazon Attack produced a 53.95% win rate across 76 blitz games, while the Siberian Attack variation reached 58.97%.

The repertoire also includes the Sicilian Defense, Dutch Defense, Australian Defense, Benoni Defense, Caro-Kann Defense, French Defense, and Amar Gambit. This is not a player who believes the opening menu should contain only one safe option. Sometimes the position is prepared, sometimes it is practical, and sometimes it appears to have escaped from a chess laboratory.

Playing Style

The statistics point to a combative, long-form style despite the emphasis on fast time controls. Endgames appear frequently, at 78.2% of recorded games, and wins average roughly 75 moves. AngelDeLaSoledad also checks first in 51.74% of analyzed games, with the queen as the most common checking piece.

The player performs slightly better with White than Black and has a strength-adjusted win rate above 50% in blitz, bullet, and rapid. That balance, combined with a strong comeback rate, makes AngelDeLaSoledad a dangerous opponent even when the position looks unpleasant, the clock is nearly empty, and the sensible move has already left the building.
