Meet fastnfar, a relentless chess adventurer whose battlefield spans Bullet, Rapid, Blitz, and Daily formats. Not quite a Grandmaster (yet), but definitely a master of rapid-fire decisions and unexpected comebacks! Known in the chess realm for embracing the chaos of Bullet games with a peak rating of 726, fastnfar combines tactical flair with a pinch of unpredictability.

With a longest winning streak of 10 games and an admirable comeback rate of nearly 77%, fastnfar clearly never surrenders easily—even when losing a piece. Early resignations are rare (just 4.3%), proving perseverance is their middle name.
