Claudio Negrini - FIDE Master Extraordinaire
Claudio Negrini, known online as claudio-negrini-115, is a chess player whose game is as solid as a fortified castle—yet as dynamic as a knight on a wild gallop. Awarded the prestigious title of FIDE Master by FIDE, Claudio has proven to be a formidable presence across multiple time controls, mastering blitz, bullet, and even dabbling successfully in rapid and daily games.
Chess Journey and Rating Highlights
Starting his blitz journey in 2014 with a rating around 1332, Claudio swiftly climbed the ranks, peaking at an impressive 2461 in 2017—a rating high enough to intimidate many a casual player and some seasoned veterans alike. His bullet rating reached a respectable 2271, showcasing his lightning-fast tactical intuition.
What’s more remarkable is Claudio’s winning spirit, boasting over 3,799 wins in blitz alone, with a winning rate of around 55%—not bad for a game where one wrong move can spell doom! Equally impressive are his comeback skills, snatching victories even after losses or material setbacks with a spectacular 100% win rate after losing a piece.
Style & Personality
With an average of 80 moves per win and a steady endgame presence in over 85% of his games, Claudio approaches chess like a marathon runner dressed as a sprinter—patient, precise, and persistent. He’s clearly not one to resign early; his early resignation rate stands at zero, which means he fights tooth and nail—checkmate or not!
His psychological resilience is noteworthy too; a tilt factor of 24 reveals he’s human (who isn’t?), but his tactical awareness and recovery skills make him a nightmare for opponents expecting an easy win after grabbing a piece.
Fun Facts & Quirks
- Claudio once streaked 14 consecutive wins, enough to make even Magnus Carlsen raise an eyebrow.
- His peak play hours? Afternoon and late evenings, especially between 13:00 and 20:00, when his win rates soar to over 60%—perfect excuse to call it "prime time for Claudio!"
- Despite an incredibly serious approach to chess, his encounters with certain opponents show a playful side, like 55% wins against “shail2206” and 50% even against titled 'gm_dylan.'
In short, Claudio Negrini is a fierce competitor on the board, a resilient tactician who refuses to back down, and a chess enthusiast whose dedication keeps the spirit of the game alive and kicking. Whether blitzing through 2300+ territory or battling in bullet, he’s a player worthy of admiration and a dash of friendly fear.
