Côme Mesnier (aka deltaY69)
Meet Côme Mesnier, an intrepid chess adventurer navigating the tempestuous seas of rapid, blitz, and bullet games. With a rapid rating that recently soared to an impressive peak of 856 in May 2025, Côme has mastered the art of outwitting opponents in a whirlwind of strategic plays and tactical flair.
Though not exactly a bullet bulletproof champion—his bullet rating maxes out around 512—Côme's resilience and fighting spirit shine brightest in the rapid format, where his win-loss record reflects a tenacious player not backing down easily: 295 wins to 269 losses, sprinkled with 30 draws. His blitz battles are no less fierce with a max rating of 577 and a hearty smile after many a victory.
What sets Côme apart? Apart from wielding a mysterious “Top Secret” opening that yields over a 52% win rate in rapid play, he has a penchant for the French Defense and the Queens Gambit Declined, boasting a perfect 100% win rate in the latter—take that, queens and gambits!
Don't let the numbers fool you; this player is a comeback artist with a 77.81% success rate bouncing back from setbacks. Patience and a cool demeanor keep tilt at bay (a mere tilt factor of 8), though even Côme can get ruffled once in a while.
When does deltaY69 shine brightest? Oddly enough, those wee hours around 2 AM are prime time for Côme — the perfect time for mind games and checkmates in the silence of the night.
