Arthur Lucas - International Master Extraordinaire

Meet Arthur Lucas, also known by his enigmatic username FrenchMonster2002, a chess player who doesn’t just play the game but practically dances his way through the 64 squares. Awarded the prestigious title of International Master by FIDE, Arthur has demonstrated a knack for blitz and bullet variants that would make even the bullet train jealous.

Blitz & Bullet Wizardry

Arthur's blitz rating has fluctuated between 1900s to an impressive peak of over 2500, showing resilience and adaptability in high-speed battles. Bullet chess? Oh, that’s where the magic happens. With ratings soaring as high as 2902 in 2023, Arthur is not just fast—he’s supersonic on the keyboard. His average bullet win rate hovers around 45%, a mix of precision, speed, and a sprinkle of chess wizardry.

Playing Style & Psychological Magic

Known for an endgame frequency of over 83%, Arthur’s games are a marathon of strategic depth and patience. He doesn’t shy away from long battles, averaging about 80 moves per win—essentially telling opponents, “You’re going to work for that win.” His Comeback Rate is a staggering 89%, proving he’s the master of bouncing back when the chips are down (or the queen is lost). Arthur’s psychological tilt factor is low, meaning losing a piece doesn’t dampen his spirit—he wins 100% of such games, probably because he’s already plotting a counterattack in his head.

Opponents Beware!

Arthur has faced a broad cast of characters on the chess battleground, from let_it_be_1 to imperage, showing an uncanny ability to dominate some (100% wins against icky opponents like "imperage") and mercilessly humble those with a lower resistance. His longest winning streak? A jaw-dropping 17 consecutive victories—a streak long enough to make chess clocks break into a sweat.

The Human Behind the Monster

When not hunting for checkmates or splitting pawns, Arthur probably enjoys torturing opponents psychologically with his slow, ominous pawn advances and possibly chuckling gleefully at their desperate blunders. Whether it’s blitz or bullet or the occasional rapid game (with a perfect 100% win rate there, no less), FrenchMonster2002 is a force of nature in the online chess arena—faster than a hiccup, sharper than a knight’s fork, and just as unpredictable.

Keep an eye out on the clock if you dare face Arthur—he might just blitz you into submission!
