Gastón Martin - FIDE Master
Gastón Martin, known in the chess circles as gastonnmartin, is a formidable FIDE Master who has turned the 64 squares into his personal battleground. Possessing a sharp tactical awareness and a comeback rate that would make Houdini jealous (89.65%), Gastón shows that giving up is simply not an option. In fact, after losing a piece, his win rate is a perfect 100%—clearly proving he’s the kind of player who snatches victory from the jaws of defeat.
Starting with a blitz rating of just 1535 in 2017, Gastón catapulted himself to a peak blitz rating of 2583 in 2022, a journey filled with intense battles totaling thousands of games. With an incredible longest winning streak of 36 games, he’s not just consistent; he’s a storm on the board. Whether playing bullet, blitz, or rapid, Gastón commands respect and fights tooth and nail, averaging about 79 moves per game - patience and precision in equal measure.
His style? A player who prefers to grind out the endgame (almost 80% frequency!) rather than rushing to quick checkmates. If the game drags on, Gastón’s in his element, slowly squeezing out wins whether he’s white or black, boasting win rates of 55.46% and 52.62% respectively. Early resignations are rare in his games (less than 1%), so expect him to battle until the very end.
Gastón’s approach to time shows his versatility: he's strong across different hours, but his most lethal moments are in the late evenings and early afternoons, with an impressive 75% win rate around 8 AM (maybe he’s a morning person after all!). Sundays also seem lucky, with a near 58% win rate.
Off the board? Well, the data isn’t clear on Gastón’s favorite pizza topping, but on the board, he’s a tactician brimming with resilience, a champion of comebacks, and a true chess warrior who turns losses into sweet victories. Opponents beware — when Gastón Martin sits at the board, it's checkmate or bust!
