Player Profile: ezequielsantu81

When it comes to the battlefield of 64 squares, ezequielsantu81 is a warrior with a quirky blend of tactical awareness and a dash of stubborn charm. Starting with a humble bullet rating of 664 back in 2020, this chess aficionado has steadily climbed the ranks, reaching a peak bullet rating of an impressive 1447 in May 2025. Yes, this player can blitz with the best of them — and then some.

While bullet is clearly the playground where ezequielsantu81 shines brightest, their adventures in blitz and rapid formats reflect a versatile player not afraid to mix things up. With rapid ratings soaring near 1490 at peak, it’s clear they don't just brawl on speed, but strategize thoughtfully when the clock ticks slower.

Playing Style & Strengths

  • Endgame Enthusiast: An endgame frequency of over 80% means ezequielsantu81 often drags opponents into the trenches where pawns march and kings stroll to victory.
  • Tactical Comeback Artist: A stunning 86% comeback rate shows a knack for turning tables — losing a piece? No problem, that’s just extra motivation!
  • Sherlock of Openings: Prefers sneaky surprises in the “Top Secret” opening repertoire, with solid stats in Nimzowitsch Larsen Attack varieties, proving a penchant for offbeat lines.

Psychological Fortitude

With a Tilt Factor of 16, ezequielsantu81 can get a bit frustrated (who doesn’t?), but the average player might call it an acceptable level of passionate fire. They are best suited for early morning battles — their prime playing time is at 4 AM, when most mortals are asleep and pawns march on without distractions.

Notable Matches

Recently, ezequielsantu81 secured a memorable checkmate victory against a user named nikol_1973 in a rapid game, showcasing strong command of the French Defense Knight Variation. A classic example of defense-turned-offense.

However, nobody’s perfect (except Magnus Carlsen, obviously). ezequielsantu81 recently suffered a tough loss to kws2610 via resignation after a wild Kings Indian Defense Four Pawns Attack. The emotional rollercoaster of chess continues!

Fun Facts

  • Despite the nickname suggesting a straightforward style, ezequielsantu81 loves the “Top Secret” opening – secret code names for secret moves.
  • Known for a surprisingly patient approach: average moves per win hover around 77, so they don’t just grab victory by the horns—they politely ask it to dinner first.
  • While average at bullet and blitz ratings compared to grandmasters, their sheer game count (thousands played) means experience is their true crown.

Whether storming through bullet battles, plotting cunning blitz ambushes, or savoring the strategic depths of rapid play, ezequielsantu81 is a chess enthusiast’s dream — a blend of tenacity, surprise, and a sprinkle of humor. Just don’t challenge them at 4 AM unless you’re ready for a fight!
