Matteo Anarchy: Chess’s Maverick
Also known in the online battlegrounds as DonMatteo03, Matteo Anarchy is a rapidly ascending force in the chess world, blending tactical flair with a touch of delightful chaos. His journey through the ranks of 2025 has been nothing short of a rollercoaster, soaring to a peak Rapid rating of 707 and a Blitz ceiling of 611. Not bad for a player whose style can best be described as “strategic surprises and endgame endurance.”
Playstyle & Statistics
Matteo’s approach to the game is an entertaining mix of resilience and unpredictability. With an impressive 72.41% comeback rate and a knack for pulling wins even after losing a piece (40.21% win rate in such situations), he’s the kind of adversary who refuses to give up without a fight. His longest winning streak of 9 games shows he can be downright relentless, though his tilt factor of 7 reminds us he’s human (and occasionally dramatic) at the board.
Matteo likes his endings – with a hefty 64.75% frequency of games reaching the endgame, averaging nearly 56 moves per win. He tends to be a patient tactician, outlasting opponents rather than blitzing them out early. Whether wearing white or black, he maintains solid win rates — 51.97% with White and 41.88% with Black.
Openings: The Accelerated London and Friends
Matteo’s Rapid games highlight a fondness for queen's pawn openings, especially the Accelerated London System, where he scores a healthy 54% win rate over 48 rapid games. He also has a surprisingly successful flirtation with the Englund Gambit, boasting a dazzling 68% win ratio in rapid when others might think twice—a true demonstration of his love for shaking the status quo.
Top Notch Recent Battles
His latest triumph was a picturesque checkmate against Luringen80 in the French Defense Advance Paulsen Attack, a game showcasing clever positional play and timing. However, his recent setbacks, such as the tough loss against x_Pioter by checkmate in a Sicilian French Variation, highlight that even Matteo's anarchic spirit meets order eventually.
When to Catch Matteo
Contrary to popular belief that chess masters peak in quiet morning hours, Matteo's best chess hours seem to be surprisingly nocturnal—with an 83% win rate around 11 PM. Clearly, the moonlight fuels his mind for tactical maneuvers.
In Conclusion
Whether you’re facing a meticulous strategy or a wild gambit, playing against Matteo Anarchy guarantees excitement. He may resign early only 2.49% of the time—as if admitting defeat is beneath his chaotic spirit—but you better be ready for a fight lasting well beyond the clock’s usual tick-tock. He’s a player defined by passion, surprises, and a dash of anarchy on 64 squares.
Pro tip: Challenge him on a Friday or Wednesday for your best shot, but beware the late-night blitzes where he really shines.
