Profile Summary: gaussthegod

Meet gaussthegod, a blitz and bullet dynamo with a chess journey as lively as his username suggests. Since 2017, gaussthegod has catapulted his rating from a humble 933 to a blistering peak of 2779 in blitz and a scorching 2782 in bullet by mid-2024 — a true testament to relentless improvement and probably some caffeine-fueled nights!
