Nicolas Perossa, FIDE Master and Bullet Specialist
Nicolas Perossa, also known online as chess_blitz00, is a FIDE Master whose chess identity is perfectly captured by his username. He is a high-volume online competitor with a particular talent for Bullet, where decisions are made faster than most players can finish saying “check.”
Playing Style and Strengths
Perossa is an energetic, resilient player who thrives in tactical and time-critical positions. His statistics show a strong comeback rate of 88.56%, suggesting that a lost piece is not necessarily bad news for his opponent. It may simply be the beginning of the next plot twist.
He is also comfortable playing long, hard-fought games, with an overall endgame frequency above 85%. His most common checking piece is the rook, reflecting a practical style that values active pieces, pressure, and finding complications when the clock is running low.
Opening Repertoire
Perossa’s repertoire is broad and inventive. In Blitz, he frequently explores the Czech Defense, Four Knights Game, Philidor Defense, Caro-Kann Defense, and Modern setups. His online games also feature ambitious choices such as the Amar Gambit and the Bird Opening.
In Bullet, the Nimzo-Larsen Attack appears regularly, while the Scandinavian Defense has produced one of his strongest reported opening results. His approach is less about quietly following a textbook and more about asking the opponent difficult questions before the clock asks them even harder ones.
Competitive Record
Across the available record, Perossa has accumulated thousands of online games in Blitz and Bullet. His peak Blitz rating reached 2833 in 2026, while his peak Bullet rating reached 2818. These figures underline his status as a formidable speed-chess competitor, even during stretches where the win-loss record became rather more dramatic than a grandmaster’s favorite endgame study.
His strongest recent performances have come in fast time controls, where instinct, tactical awareness, and clock management combine to make every second count.
Legacy at the Chessboard
Whether attacking with an unusual opening, surviving a difficult middlegame, or converting a rook check with seconds remaining, Nicolas Perossa brings a distinctive blend of creativity and persistence. For followers of online speed chess, chess_blitz00 is a player to watch whenever the board is crowded, the position is complicated, and the clock is merciless.
