Rating Rollercoaster and Blitz Brilliance

Starting in 2015 with a blitz rating of 1978, Christoph steadily soared to dizzying heights, crossing the 2500 threshold by 2020 and continuing to peak at 2575 by 2025. His blitz game is his playground — with an impressive 61.2% win rate over 245 games using his favorite secret openings. Not one to shy away from rapid games, he also boasts a sturdy 55.6% win rate there.

A Streak to Behold

Among his notable feats is a jaw-dropping 9-win streak that made opponents wonder if he had hacked the chess matrix. Never one to give up early, Christoph has an early resignation rate of zero — he fights until the very last pawn moves.

The Comeback Kid

Lose a piece? No problem! Christoph’s comeback rate of 88.5% and 100% win rate after losing a piece prove he’s not just playing the board, he’s playing minds. It’s said that when Christoph’s down material, his opponents start sweating bullets.

Style Points and Psychological Warfare

With an average game lasting over 77 moves when victorious, Christoph is a marathoner in a sport known for sprints. His endgame frequency is a whopping 79%, showing his love for that final, thrilling part of chess. His “tilt factor” is surprisingly low at 4, meaning when most would rage-quit or pout, Christoph is patiently plotting the next checkmate.

Known Adversaries and Friendly Fire

Christoph’s most-played foes include olegkrivonosov and iamsheaf, and while some opponents have a perfect 100% win rate against him, others like blaza6691 have tasted 0% defeat—proving chess is a mix of art, science, and a pinch of luck.

Fun Fact

Christoph wins best when others call it quits. His 100% win rate after losing a piece might well be a secret weapon, or maybe he just likes proving people wrong. Either way, it keeps his fans on the edge of their seats.

Whether it’s blitz, rapid, or a good-old slow burn, Christoph Scheerer embodies the spirit of chess: smart, strategic, and never without a surprise up his sleeve.
