Pablo Diaz Mino - FIDE Master
Known in the chess world by the clever username Estrategia_vs_Tactica, Pablo Diaz Mino is a formidable FIDE Master who combines strategic depth with tactical flair. With a rating that hovers impressively around the 2200s in Rapid and shoots up past 2500 in Blitz, Pablo is the kind of player who makes you rethink whether the clock is your friend or nemesis.
Chess Journey & Playing Style
In 2023, Pablo's rapid rating was 2236 and he consistently kept it strong with almost flawless records in subsequent years, peaking at 2239 in 2025. But where he really shines is blitz, clocking a peak rating of 2537 in 2025 amidst hundreds of high-speed clashes. Bullet enthusiasts also know Pablo's name, where quick thinking and nerve have led to impressive victories and a steady 2200+ rating.
His style? A long game strategist who loves complex endgames (76% of his games see an endgame!), and who enjoys the grind with an average of 78 moves per win. Patience and precision are Pablo's trademarks, offset by an uncanny tactical awareness reflected in a 100% win rate after losing a piece. It’s safe to say he can turn the tables on you when you least expect it.
Record & Rivalries
Pablo keeps a ruthless record with over 20 rapid wins and just a single loss, and while his blitz battles have been fierce with 245 wins to 221 losses, he always lands on his feet — boasting an 83% comeback rate. Notably, his longest winning streak is a formidable 12 games, making him a tough opponent who asks, “Is it checkmate or will there be more tricks up the sleeve?”
Among his many opponents, he enjoys a winning relationship with franrf723 (almost 86% win rate), but less so with some others — proving Pablo’s competitive spirit thrives on variety, and maybe the occasional revenge match!
Humor & Humanity
While this chess whiz can crush pieces and dreams alike, Pablo takes losses with a tilt factor of only 10 — meaning he’s about as calm as a monk who just found the perfect opening move. And if you think he’s all seriousness, know that his early resignation rate is just over 1%, so expect him to battle hard even when the chips are down.
In short: Pablo Diaz Mino is the kind of player who blends strategy and tactic with a dash of grit, speed, and a love for chess that’s contagious. Beware when you sit opposite him — it might just turn into a marathon of moves you’ll remember (or a blitzkrieg you won’t!).
