Carsten Hecht - The FIDE Master with a Tactical Flair
Meet Carsten Hecht, better known in the chess world as edjo32, a formidable FIDE Master whose blitz games have more twists and turns than a rollercoaster. Starting from humble daily ratings back in 2016, Carsten has accelerated to a peak blitz rating nearing 2600 by 2023—a rating that demands respect and probably a few sighs from opponents.
Not just a speed demon in blitz, Carsten shows notable prowess in rapid games with a striking win rate above 90% in their preferred "Top Secret" openings—one wonders what secrets those moves hold! Their bullet and daily performances are no slouches either; they bring strategic depth and resilience to every time control.
Carsten is known for a comeback rate of 86.66%, proving that losing a piece is just a mild inconvenience—because when edjo32 is down, they come back swinging with a perfect 100% win rate after piece loss. Opponents beware: early resignation isn't cheap here, with Carsten keeping calm and clicking through long battles averaging over 70 moves per win.
Psychologically, Carsten keeps their tilt factor impressively low (a modest 10), but when it comes to casual games, they seem to miss the fun by a margin of 36.7% compared to rated play. Dedicated? Absolutely. Casual? Not so much.
Their longest winning streak is a staggering 30 games—imagine that streak on a Friday evening! Notably, Sunday and Wednesday seem to be their lucky days, both boasting win rates well above 56%, and playing around 10 AM or 5 PM might just earn you a loss if you face Carsten.
Whether blitz, bullet, or rapid, Carsten Hecht's consistency and fierce competitive spirit make edjo32 a player worth watching—and trying not to lose against. Keep an eye on this cunning strategist who’s always ready to spring a trap and turn the tables with a smile.
