Dagur Ragnarsson IM

Dagur Ragnarsson (DagurR) - International Master

Meet Dagur Ragnarsson, a chess virtuoso proudly holding the title of International Master granted by FIDE. If chess was a battlefield, Dagur is the general with a penchant for blitz and bullet skirmishes, delivering checkmates faster than you can say "en passant."

Career Highlights

• Peak Blitz Rating: 2754 (March 2025) – a rating so high it’s practically in the chess stratosphere.
• Peak Bullet Rating: 2718 (August 2021) – speed meets precision with a dash of instinctive flair.
• Peak Rapid Rating: 2700 (December 2023) – proving that not only quick reflexes but deep thinking are in the arsenal.
• Peak Daily Rating: 799 (April 2025) – slow games have their charm too!

Playing Style and Stats

Dagur boasts an impressive win rate at blitz (over 52%) and bullet (over 53%) games, which means if you’re playing fast chess against them, you better bring your A-game! With a longest winning streak of 19 games, Dagur's hot streaks could burn even the coldest opponent. On the flip side, a longest losing streak of 10 reminds us even champions have their “Oops” moments.

Known for tactical awareness with a remarkable 90.67% comeback rate, Dagur barely flinches after losing material and often turns the tables with brilliant counterplays. A psychological tilt factor of 10 suggests our IM is cool as ice in stressful situations—probably drinking coffee at 4 a.m., the best time of day to play, according to Dagur’s stats.

Signature Openings

While Dagur likes to keep their blitz and bullet games wrapped in a bit of mystery (“Top Secret” is the opening of choice!), their sharp playstyle thrives in complex positions demanding creativity and tenacity.

Recent Memorable Games

Just recently, Dagur outwitted vigga_in_the_house in a daily game with a Scandinavian Defense (Mieses-Kotrc Variation), securing a win on time but demonstrating positional mastery along the way. Not every victory comes from a brutal tactical smackdown; sometimes patience pays off, or the clock simply does the work.

Of course, even an International Master isn’t immune to setbacks. His most recent adventures include a tough battle against Losingexperience, where a checkmate ended the game. But don’t worry, Dagur bounces back faster than a chess pawn reaching promotion.

Fun Facts

• Dagur averages about 87 moves per win, proving that patience is truly a virtue.
• Preferably operates in the wee hours; 4 a.m. is apparently the fortress of unbeatable chess creativity.
• Dagur’s current winning streak is 2 games — but with a peak rating nearing 2750, you can expect that number to climb soon!

In short, Dagur Ragnarsson is a formidable player who blends speed, strategy, and a little bit of late-night magic. If you want to challenge them, remember: the game’s afoot, but beware the midnight blitz wizard!
