Yanbin Wang - International Master of the 64 Squares

Meet Yanbin Wang, the chess virtuoso known in the digital realm as f31watlve. With the prestigious title of International Master from FIDE firmly under their belt, Yanbin has navigated the battlefield of chess with impressive grit, brains, and a touch of flair since 2018.

Specializing in the lightning-fast pace of Bullet and Blitz chess, Yanbin has soared to a phenomenal bullet peak rating of 2811 in July 2024 and an equally staggering Blitz peak of 2807 in May 2025. Their Rapid play isn't too shabby either, boasting a peak of 2642. Put simply: whether it's blitzing in seconds or calmly plotting the middle game, Yanbin thrives.

Known for a tactical awareness that's nothing short of legendary, Yanbin possesses an 87.88% comeback rate in tough spots and manages to win more than half the games even after losing a piece (a knack many grandmasters envy). With an endgame frequency of over 85%, Yanbin loves a good finish—as they say, "the game’s not over till the kings bow out."

Yanbin's style combines patience and precision, averaging about 76 moves per win, and keeping cool under pressure with a tilt factor of just 13 (they might even forgive losing a pawn or two before striking back). Their love for the mysterious and somewhat secretive openings hints at a chess player who enjoys keeping opponents guessing—remember, Top Secret isn’t just a phrase, it’s their favorite opening!

On a lighter note, Yanbin seems to be a night owl and early riser, standing tall with an unbeatable win rate around midnight and an absurd 87.5% success rate at 12 AM. Clearly, while many dream of checkmate, Yanbin’s busy delivering it.

Notable Recent Feats

• Recently clinched a swift and stylish victory by resignation in a Bird’s Opening (Dutch Variation) blitz game, proving that even offbeat openings are fair game for this strategic master.
• Over 760 games with the mysterious Top Secret opening in Bullet chess, boasting a win rate over 58%—definitely a preferred weapon in their arsenal.
• A winning streak so fierce it once hit 29 consecutive victories, which is basically the chess equivalent of a boss level in a video game.

Whether facing the pressures of the clock or engaging in deep strategic duels, Yanbin Wang plays with the tenacity and creativity that keeps all opponents on their toes. Next time you see f31watlve on the board, prepare for a game rich in tactics, surprises, and a dash of midnight magic!
