Maximilian Berchtenbreiter - International Master
Maximilian Berchtenbreiter is a formidable International Master certified by FIDE,
whose chess journey reads like a thrilling novel with plenty of twists and an impressive flair for comebacks.
Known among peers (and a long list of online adversaries) for a tactical prowess that borders on wizardry, Maximilian has mastered the art of bouncing back – boasting a remarkable 95.19% comeback rate and an unbeatable 100% win rate after losing a piece. Clearly, surrender is not in Maximilian's vocabulary (unless forced by opponents’ brilliant strategies).
Balancing a cerebral deep thinking style with a dash of speed, Maximilian thrives both in bullet and blitz formats.
With peak blitz ratings soaring above 2800 in 2019 and bullet flirting with 2658 as recently as 2023, he dazzles fans and frustrates rivals alike. His longest winning streak? A jaw-dropping 13 games—because when Maximilian is on fire, it's all inferno.
Maximilian’s opponents range from beloved rivals like jesustucuch and kamilplichta (both repeatedly tested and partially vanquished) to those who are still chasing an elusive victory. Some lucky folks, such as kingmarriland, discovered that losing to Maximilian can be a 100% experience—as in "you will lose 100% of the time." Ouch! But credit where it’s due: Maximilian’s interaction with a broad spectrum of players reveals versatility and respect for the game’s multifaceted challenges.
When it comes to playing habits, Maximilian is not your average chess player. Endgames appear almost as often as coffee breaks (with an 86.83% endgame frequency), proving stamina and strategic depth. Average wins stretch to about 84 moves, which may or may not justify a fitness regimen for fingers and brain alike. His resilience is further highlighted by a low early resignation rate (1.19%): Maximilian fights hard even when the odds look grim.
Fun fact: if you want to time your match for maximum frustration, avoid playing Maximilian on Thursday afternoons—his win rate dips modestly there. However, play after 6 PM and prepare for a 61.43% chance he'll outwit you. Spoiler: evenings are prime time for Maximilian’s strategic magic.
Whether battling in blitz, bullet, or rapid games, Maximilian Berchtenbreiter combines relentless determination, tactical genius, and a sprinkle of online bravado. He might just be the player who can turn even your blunder into their victory story.
