Cristian Camilo Soto
FIDE Master & Chess Enthusiast Extraordinaire
Meet Cristian Camilo Soto, the chess wizard who proudly wears the FIDE Master title like a badge of honor—no wand required! With instincts sharper than a queen’s diagonal and a tactical awareness rivaling the best, Cristian has steadily climbed the ranks, proving that persistence and passion make an unstoppable combo.
Since 2015, Cristian has dazzled opponents across all time controls, but particularly shines in bullet and blitz, where lightning-fast decisions separate the titans from the mere mortals. From humble beginnings with a bullet rating around 1685 to a peak of over 2600 in blitz by 2025, this virtuoso’s journey is a masterclass in grinding and growth. Beware if you face them between 7 PM and 11 PM—Cristian’s win rates skyrocket during these prime chess hours!
Bold opening strategies — shrouded in mystery as “Top Secret” — combined with a 91.41% comeback rate and a jaw-dropping 99.7% win rate after losing a piece, prove that resignation isn’t in their vocabulary. In fact, the early resignation rate is a mere 1.74%, which means they battle until the final pawn drops.
When Cristian isn’t busy delivering checkmates in under a minute, they’re likely contemplating their next strategic masterpiece or enjoying the psychological warfare of chess — after all, with a tilt factor of 9, even the greatest have their "uh-oh" moments, but Cristian dusts it off and keeps on clicking.
Fans often joke that Cristian could probably beat you blindfolded, but with average moves per win hovering around 79, it’s really a long, thrilling ride. Whether wielding white or lurking in black’s shadows, Cristian’s win rates hover above 47%, proving versatility is key.
Fun fact: They hold a record winning streak of 31 games. That’s right, 31 opponents sent packing before their first stumble—almost impressive enough to make Bobby Fischer nod in respect.
In short, Cristian Camilo Soto is the embodiment of chess resilience and style. Next time you sit down for a game, don’t be surprised if your bullet clock starts begging for mercy.
