Arnold Mayeregger - National Master Extraordinaire
Meet Arnold Mayeregger, the chess maestro who ascended to the proud title of National Master and made the chessboard his personal playground. Starting with a humble blitz rating of 1342 in 2016, Arnold’s journey is nothing short of a thrilling rollercoaster, climbing up to a blistering blitz peak of 2666 by 2025. That’s right, while some people collect stamps or fancy mugs, Arnold collects rating points.
Known for a sharp tactical eye and a comeback rate of a staggering 89%, Arnold has a knack for snatching victory from the jaws of defeat—after losing a piece, they boast a ridiculous 100% win rate. It’s safe to say resignation before the endgame isn’t part of Arnold’s vocabulary, with a mere 1.23% early resignation rate. That’s some serious stubbornness... or supreme confidence.
Arnold’s blitz arena stats speak volumes: over 2,900 games played with a 44% win rate, several significant winning streaks (longest being 11 games), and battles fought against a colorful cast of opponents — from mnedev to kukumber78—many of whom have learned the hard way that Arnold’s play is not to be underestimated.
When it comes to playing style, Arnold is a marathon player, averaging nearly 77 moves per win, showing a love for deep, strategic endgames (encountered in over 80% of matches). Whether wielding the white or black pieces, Arnold keeps the boards buzzing with intensity, proving that chess is not just a game, but a dramatic saga full of twists and turns.
Arnold also shines under pressure, often delivering peak performances late into the evening with a peak win rate of almost 60% during the early morning hours (yes, the 7 AM chess warrior!). Interestingly, some hours are better than others (looking at you, 8 AM with a 25% win rate), reminding us that even chess geniuses have their coffee times.
In the fast-paced realm of bullet chess, Arnold strikes with impressive precision too—firing off wins at a 54% rate at peak and holding a calm hand even when the clock is merciless.
All this excellence, and yet Arnold isn’t without quirks—the tilt factor is noticeable at 14%, suggesting that even this master can feel a pinch of grumpiness when the chess gods are not in their favor. But with resilience bordering on superhero levels, Arnold shakes it off and comes back stronger.
In short, Arnold Mayeregger is a true chess gladiator: versatile, persistent, deeply strategic, and occasionally caffeinated. Watch out, opponents—this master’s moves are not just calculated, they’re legendary.
