David Iván Arvizu Borchardt - The National Master with a Tactical Flair

Also known online as BorchisChess, David Iván Arvizu Borchardt is no ordinary chess enthusiast. Holding the prestigious title of National Master, David has steadily carved a niche in the fast-paced world of bullet and blitz chess, with rapid flair to boot.

Since bursting onto the scene around 2019, David's chess journey resembles a rollercoaster — with rating climbs, occasional dips, and a relentless pursuit of excellence. Starting with a bullet rating under 1000 in 2020, they catapulted into the 2400s by 2022, showcasing blistering speed and precision (and a little bit of caffeine-fueled madness perhaps).

David’s favorite battlefield? Bullet and blitz — where reflexes meet razor-sharp calculation. In bullet chess alone, they've played over 2,600 games, winning a commendable 877, which suggests that their fingers move almost as fast as their mind. In blitz, the win count nudges close to 1,000 victories, proving that when the clock ticks down, David thrives.

Not just a speed demon, David’s tactical awareness is impressive — a comeback success rate over 80% and an astonishing 95% win rate after losing a piece. If chess were a movie, David would be the hero who slips into a tough spot only to turn the tables at the last moment. Rival players beware: once a piece is lost, retreat is probably futile.

Their playing style marries patience and persistence — averaging around 66 moves per win or loss — indicative that David enjoys a slow burn as much as a quick spark. The endgame is a familiar friend, appearing in over 70% of games. When playing White, David tends to hold a slight edge with a nearly 56% win rate. Black? Still formidable with over 50% wins.

David's psychological resilience is tested by a Tilt Factor of 17 — which implies even the best have their off moments (human after all!) — but their determination surely keeps them returning to the board with fresh focus.

Off the board, they're a mystery wrapped in a chessboard: consistently using “Top Secret” openings that keep opponents guessing and unable to prepare in advance. Achieving longest winning streaks of up to 20 games, this player mixes strategic brilliance with a hint of chess ninja stealth.

Whether battling veterans or fresh-faced challengers (with win rates often above 60% against many frequent opponents), David Iván Arvizu Borchardt is a formidable name to remember in the National chess community — a charming mix of speed, skill, and a touch of the unexpected.

Fun fact: If you catch David online, beware a sudden flurry of moves that might feel like the keyboard is possessed — that's just "BorchisChess" awakening their inner lightning bolt!
