Alejandro Domingo Nunez
FIDE Master | Also Known as CrushingKings
Alejandro Domingo Nunez, famously known online as CrushingKings, is no ordinary chess player. Possessing the prestigious title of FIDE Master, Alejandro has demonstrated both strategic brilliance and a fierce competitive spirit on the 64 squares.
His journey through the game is a rollercoaster of epic highs and some relatable lows. Whether blitzing opponents at a dizzying pace or carefully navigating the complexities of bullet games, Alejandro thrives in intense, fast-paced environments. In fact, his peak blitz rating soared to an impressive 2773 in early 2024 — that's chess wizardry worthy of at least one spell-check from Gandalf.
Known for a tactical awareness that could easily be mistaken for sorcery, Alejandro boasts a comeback rate of over 87% when the tides turn against him. His psychological endurance also shines, with a surprisingly low tilt factor of just 10, proving that even the fiercest knights can keep their cool.
Alejandro is a player who favors endgames, engaging in prolonged battles averaging nearly 78 moves per game, reflecting both patience and perseverance. His favorite time to channel his inner chess god? The wee hours around 3:00 AM, when opponents are mostly blinking sleepily at the board — a perfect battleground for his genius.
Opening Repertoire
With an eclectic taste — from the French Defense Knight Variation to the classical Giuoco Piano — Alejandro surprises foes by mastering a wide spectrum of openings. The Top Secret line is his stealthiest weapon, quietly accumulating thousands of games with a nearly 47% win rate. Taking risks? Sure, but only with style.
Notable Recent Matches
One of Alejandro’s recent masterstrokes was a crushing victory by resignation against leroyfucik in a fiercely contested battle using the French Defense Knight Variation – Two Knights Variation. His strategic aggressiveness was on full display as he pushed his pawns and pieces with precision, culminating in an elegant and inevitable checkmate.
On the flip side — even champions face setbacks. Alejandro's last loss came from a swiftly executed checkmate by dreamdesdtroyer_11 in a Modern Defense Standard Line. But a true champion never lets one checkmate define him; instead, Alejandro tactfully dusts off his pieces and returns stronger.
Personality & Playing Style
Alejandro's style would best be described as a hybrid of patience and pestilence for opponents — patiently weaving deep strategies and pestering rivals with tactical strikes that leave them wondering if they accidentally played against a chess robot… or simply a crushing king on the board.
When Alejandro isn't busy conjuring brilliant combinations or posting game analyses online, he probably enjoys plotting how to beat his arch-nemeses like fontvella8 or lennis93, with spectacular win rates against certain challengers suggesting a bit of personal rivalry sprinkled with playful banter.
All in all, Alejandro Domingo Nunez aka CrushingKings is a formidable force in the chess world — a blend of sharp calculation, enduring resilience, and just the right dash of cheeky bravado to keep both foes and fans entertained.
