Sean Nagle - International Master
Sean Nagle, known in chess circles by the mysterious moniker Greenhaven, is an International Master with a reputation for both strategic depth and tactical wizardry. With a rapid rating that impressively soared to 2536 in 2021, Sean has proven time and again that rushing the clock is no match for careful calculation.
Unlike mere mortals, Sean's bullet chess rating once peaked at a blazing 2465 in 2012, reflecting lightning-fast fingers and an even quicker mind. Their blitz games aren't any less spectacular, boasting a peak rating of 2379 in 2017, and an overall win rate comfortably above 50%. When the pressure mounts, Sean doesn't crack — they perform best during the witching hours, with an 80% win rate at 6 AM and a 70% climb at 11 AM, showing that maybe coffee and a few good moves go hand in hand.
Sean's playing style is a blend of patience and resilience. With an average of 71 moves per win, they grind down opponents in the endgame almost 80% of the time, refusing to yield until the final piece falls. This tenacity is backed by an incredible comeback rate of nearly 88% and a perfect record winning back games even after losing material—a true chess phoenix!
But beware: Sean also has a peculiar tilt factor of 10, meaning behind the cool facade might lurk a tempest after a few bad moves. Still, their quiet psychological strength is evident in an enthusiastic 20% higher win rate in rated play compared to casual games—proving that when the stakes rise, so does Sean’s level of play.
Off the board, Sean's relationship with opponents reads like a novel — some foes fall prey to a perfect 100% win rate (sorry, ejarov, joseph_truelson, and pals), while others have surely provided more challenging puzzles. Friends, rivals, and enemies alike know Sean is a player who mixes humor and hardcore skill, keeping the chess world on its toes and the audience entertained.
Whether they’re unleashing a sudden tactical storm or patiently maneuvering through drawn-out endgames, Sean Nagle’s chess journey is a compelling tale of dedication, strategy, and a touch of eccentric magic.
