Early Career
Felix Rose, a FIDE Candidate Master, started his online chess journey in late 2014 with a modest 1390 Blitz rating. He climbed quickly, crossing the 2000 mark in early 2015 and eventually earning the Candidate Master title. His trajectory shows a player who learns fast and never stops grinding.
The Bullet Specialist
Felix plays bullet chess the way other people breathe. With tens of thousands of bullet games logged, he thrives in the chaos of fast time controls. His bullet rating peaked at 2306 (2023-12-04), while his blitz game reached an impressive 2417 (2024-01-30) in early 2024. His early morning sessions, especially around 06:00, produce his best results, which suggests he either wakes up at dawn or simply never goes to sleep.
Opening Repertoire
Felix favors flexible, fighting openings. As White he frequently steers into the Caro-Kann Defense or the Sicilian Defense, while as Black he is equally at home in the Scandinavian Defense and the sharp Amazon Attack lines. His most reliable weapon is the Amazon Attack: Siberian Attack, where he scores above 50 percent in both blitz and bullet. He also enjoys offbeat tries like the Amar Gambit and the Australian Defense, keeping opponents off balance from move one.
Rivalries
No player has faced Felix more often than LUIS MIGUEL FLORESVILLAR, a rivalry spanning 260 games. Felix holds a clear edge with 135 wins against 86 losses. Another frequent opponent is danielespinossaa, who has gotten the better of the Candidate Master in their 103 meetings. Felix also shares a long history with miluis, another familiar face in his bullet marathon sessions.
Fighting Spirit
Felix never gives up. His comeback rate sits near 80 percent, and he once rattled off 19 consecutive wins. Even after losing a piece, he still wins nearly half the time, making him a dangerous opponent in any time control. Of course, even the best tilt occasionally, and his 15 game losing streak proves he is human after all.
