Carlos David Gomez - FIDE Master and Chess Aficionado
Meet Carlos David Gomez, a chess virtuoso who holds the distinguished title of FIDE Master. Known in many circles simply as david_gomez, Carlos has been a force to reckon with on the blitz and bullet chess boards since 2018, delighting fans and confounding opponents with an uncanny knack for rapid calculations and tactical mayhem.
Starting his blitz journey at a modest rating of 997 in 2018, Carlos swiftly climbed the ranks to soar beyond 2700—yes, the 2700 club!—by 2025. His bullet battles have been almost as explosive, with a peak rating of 2515 and impressive win rates that'd make even the fastest grandmasters blink twice.
A gladiator of the rapid-fire variants, Carlos’ playing style is a curious blend of dogged perseverance and surgical precision. With an 87% comeback rate and a perfect 100% win rate after losing a piece, he’s basically the Houdini of chess—just when you think he's down, he pulls a winning trick out of his cap.
His games aren't short on drama either: averaging over 70 moves in victory or defeat, Carlos clearly likes to savor the battlefield, proving that chess marathons can be just as thrilling as sprints. Besides, who else boasts a winning streak of 19 without losing their cool? (Though his tilt factor of 9 suggests he’s human after all—just barely.)
Whether it’s battling mysterious foes like "aliencowboy" or showcasing dominance with a 100% win rate against several competitors, Carlos plays like a man who’s somehow cracked the code of the chess universe—yet still laughs in the face of complexity.
Off the board, Carlos remains an enigma wrapped in a riddle — until the next game starts, that is. Then, all bets are off and the game is on. If you ever find yourself across the board from him, don’t be surprised if your queen suddenly “goes missing” or if you’re part of one of the most thrilling comeback stories in blitz history.
