Filip Haring - International Master Extraordinaire

Filip Haring, known in the digital chess playground as BestStelker, has carved out a formidable reputation as an International Master under the watchful eyes of FIDE. With a flair for speedy chess, Filip boasts bullet ratings soaring up to an eye-watering 2857 in 2025, and a blitz peak of 2775—numbers that most mortals only dream of.

Speed Demon on 64 Squares

Like a caffeine-fueled cheetah darting across the board, Filip’s bullet and blitz games exhibit breathtaking tactical awareness. His comeback rate is an astonishing 91.4%, and his win rate after losing a piece is a perfect 100%. When Filip loses a piece, opponents might as well start consoling themselves — he’s just getting started.

Opening Secrets and Legendary Streaks

His favorite chess opening is literally "Top Secret" (we swear!), and with good reason: it’s won him a jaw-dropping 55.3% of his blitz games and an even more impressive 60.1% win rate in bullet. Sometimes keeping secrets is the best move. Speaking of moves, his longest winning streak is a scorching 17 games, proving once and for all that BestStelker is not one to be underestimated.

Chess Philosopher and Gentle Warrior

Besides his lightning-fast attacks, Filip is quite the strategic player, frequently engaging in complex endgames—on average, more than 80 moves per game, whether winning or losing. White pieces or black, his winning percentages tell the tale: 61.5% with White and 55.9% with Black.

When to Catch Him Playing

Filip is at his peak form at some rather unusual hours: morning’s 8 AM brings a stellar 75.9% win rate, while late evenings (9 PM and 10 PM) see him crushing games with nearly 70% victory rates. Perhaps he’s fueled by extra morning coffee or the quiet of the night, but either way, challenging him then might be considered brave… or foolhardy.

Psychological Tidbits

Even a chess machine has feelings; Filip’s tilt factor is modest at 8, meaning he usually keeps his cool (except maybe after a bad cup of coffee). However, watch out: he tends to perform better in rated games than casual ones by a noticeable margin—clearly, he thrives under pressure.

In short, Filip Haring is a master tactician, a relentless competitor, and proof that speed and strategy do indeed make an unbeatable combo. If you ever get the chance to play him, consider it both an honor and a trial by fire.
