Ian Ocampos (aka chuessco) - The National Master with a Lightning Bolt
Meet Ian Ocampos, a National Master who plays chess so fast you might think they're blitzing through a game of speed chess on a sugar rush. From humble beginnings with a daily rating around 1300 in 2020, Ian has zapped their way up to a blistering blitz peak of 2612 in 2025—talk about leveling up! Their bullet games have also been firing on all cylinders with a max rating edging close to 2600. Ian’s chess prowess is not just about speed but also resilience: with an incredible comeback rate of 84.63% and a perfect 100% win rate after losing a piece, it's clear this player refuses to throw in the towel (despite an endgame frequency over 73%, Ian’s games often have the suspense of a thriller movie).
Playing with both White and Black, Ian shows a slight edge when wielding the white pieces, clinching a win rate of nearly 52%, while black pieces yield respectable battles too with a 45% win rate. Don’t blink during their games — their average moves per win and loss hover around 69 moves, making each encounter a marathon as much as a sprint.
Ian has a streaky personality on the board: a longest winning streak of 16 games, and currently on a 3-game win streak, proving that once the fire is lit, this player keeps it burning. Beware opponents, their favorite opening? That’s Top Secret, a fitting name for someone who plays with such mysterious and effective tactical awareness.
Out of the chessboard and into the records, Ian’s favorite opponents include giuly-2004 with an 80% winning record against them, and they've been tough matches with mr_nimzo and exceptionallynooby. They do have a rough patch against a few nemeses like “johancruyff,” but hey, who doesn’t?
Known affectionately online as chuessco, Ian’s chess journey is a whirlwind of rapid-fire decisions, tactical wizardry, and a flair that anyone who faces off against them won't soon forget. Next time you’re playing blitz, keep an eye out—you might just face the speedster National Master!
