Matthias Dorner - The FIDE Master Extraordinaire

Meet Matthias Dorner, also known online as beaumes, a chess virtuoso crowned with the title of FIDE Master. With a blitz peak rating soaring to 2252 in December 2014, Matthias has shown tremendous skill and a relentless spirit on the 64 squares.

Starting with a modest blitz rating around 1300 in early 2013, Matthias blitzed his way up the ranks with tens of thousands of games played, boasting an impressive blitz win rate over 54%. Whether cruising through openings or navigating fierce endgames (which happen in a whopping 83% of their games), this player combines patience with tactical sharpness. Average games last around 73 moves for wins — who said blitz was quick and frantic?

The FIDE Master’s style is a rollercoaster of emotions. Known to occasionally early resign (only about 0.3% of the time; hey, who hasn’t had a bad day?) and capable of remarkable comebacks (over 77% comeback rate!), Matthias dances on the edge of dramatic flair while showing psychological resilience. With a tilt factor of 11, Matthias sometimes gets a little spicy, but is clearly skilled at regaining composure.

Matthias shines best late at night (bar aficionados, listen up: their prime is around 10 PM) and puts on a dazzling show especially when playing white, scoring nearly 57% victories. Matthias also seems to have some “favorite villains” on the board, including a surprising win rate of 100% against a number of opponents (take that!). Longest winning streak? A stunning 17 games — a true blitzstorm.

Though blitz is the battlefield of choice — accumulating thousands of wins and even dabbling briefly in bullet (where things were understandably a bit rough) — Matthias prefers strategy over speed, often outsmarting rivals in long, winding tactical battles rather than lightning fast skirmishes.

And yes: the recent games show Matthias’s clever adoption of the Caro-Kann Defense and Modern setups, demonstrating both classical understanding and creative nuance. Whether winning by resignation or navigating complex pawn structures, this master never fails to entertain those lucky enough to witness their play.

In summary, Matthias Dorner is a chess player who embodies dedication, skill, and a dash of flair — a true FIDE Master who continues to make the 64 squares an arena of brilliance and, occasionally, dramatic resignation.
