Emanuel Nieto (bearbully) - The Blitz and Bullet Maestro
Meet Emanuel Nieto, known to many by his fierce username bearbully, a chess player who embodies speed, strategy, and a little bit of calculated chaos. Emanuel’s journey on the 64 squares is nothing short of a thrilling rollercoaster ride—full of dazzling streaks, epic battles, and just the right amount of time pressure drama.
Career Highlights
- Peak Blitz Rating: 2325 (achieved March 2016) - solid enough to make grandmasters raise an eyebrow.
- Peak Bullet Rating: 2453 (April 2016) - wink if you blink, because those games are lightning fast!
- Longest Winning Streak: An impressive 32 games in a row — at that point, the pawns probably were whispering, “Don’t mess with Emanuel.”
Playing Style - Quick, Clever, and Unyielding
Emanuel’s style is a mix of aggressive tactics and resilient endgame wizardry. His early resignation rate is a modest 0.38, meaning he often fights to the bitter last move or till your clock runs out—literally. 84% of his games see fierce endgames, showing his preference for grinding out victories rather than quick trickery (though he’s fully capable of dazzling combos, especially in bullet time controls).
He shines brightest around 7 AM — the best time to challenge him, or prepare a strong cup of coffee yourself. His win rate with White is a spicy 63.69%, while Black pieces bring a respectable 56.53% success.
Speed Demon of the Board
With thousands of games played, Emanuel has demonstrated a special flair in blitz and bullet chess. He’s played over 10,000 bullet games with a win rate hovering near 60%, which is pretty much superhero level in the hyper-fast realm of bullet chess.
In blitz, carrying the legacy of his ‘Top Secret’ opening strategy, he boasts a 61.69% win rate over more than 2,000 games. You might never quite guess his opening moves – he keeps it under wraps like a secret agent… or maybe he’s just messing with everyone. That’s bearbully for you.
Opponent Chronicles & Quirks
Among his fiercest rivals are players like grandemas (236 encounters) and humblespaceman (193 games). Emanuel has a track record of dominating many opponents with win rates soaring to 100% against a striking number of players. However, not every battle is a breeze; he’s faced some tough nuts to crack, demonstrating resilience rather than retreat.
Psychologically, Emanuel suffers a bit from a tilt factor of 11, which in chess-speak means he’s somewhat human: losing a few games in a row can sting. Luckily, with an 81.67% comeback rate, he often bounces back stronger than ever.
Memorable Recent Games
In his latest showdown versus Purry1979, Emanuel triumphed via time rather than checkmate—proof that sometimes, the clock is the deadliest weapon in the arena. A true blitz warrior, he executes precise moves and operates on pure instinct when the seconds fade.
Final Thoughts
Emanuel Nieto, aka bearbully, is the kind of player who can intimidate even the boldest of grandmasters—not just with his ratings, but with his relentless pace and strategic guile. Whether he's slicing through bullet games at a blink or grinding down opponents in marathon blitz battles, Emanuel’s chess persona is as electrifying as his lightning-quick reflexes.
So, if you ever get the chance to play bearbully, remember: his pawns might be small, but his bite is mighty.
