Avier Velez Casado: The Chess Chronicles

Meet Avier Velez Casado, a chess enthusiast whose journey is nothing short of a rollercoaster ride — with more twists and turns than a knight’s dance! Known online as GSO-GG, Avier’s ratings have soared and dipped across various time formats, showcasing a player who’s fearless in both rapid-fire blitz and the slow, contemplative dance of rapid chess.

In 2024, Avier burst onto the scene with a blazing blitz rating peak of 485 (yes, that’s a chess rating, not a robot model number), only to face some humbling moments with a last recorded blitz rating of 100. But fear not! By 2025, our intrepid player bounced back resiliently with a rapid rating climbing back up to 198 and a bullet rating holding firm around 215 — clearly proving that persistence is their secret weapon.

Avier’s style is delightfully eclectic: early resignations happen about 14% of the time (sometimes we all know when the queen’s been sacrificed to the gaming gods), but expect a robust endgame frequency of 46%, signaling that when the game truly heats up, Avier doesn’t shy away from the challenge. With an average of about 45 moves per victory, Avier’s battles are as long as a Netflix series — intense and worth every second.

Now, here’s a fun fact: Avier’s “comeback rate” is an impressive 56%, which basically means that when the chips are down, they often turn the tables—almost as if to say, “You thought I was down? Watch this!” And if Avier loses a piece early, don’t count them out — their win rate after losing a piece is a jaw-dropping 98%. Talk about fighting spirit!

Friendly and competitive, Avier’s most played opponents include mysterious usernames like “1fr2ot” and “tree1is2cool,” with whom win rates swing wildly—a reminder that every rival is a new puzzle to solve. The player’s longest winning streak of 5 games reveals a streak of brilliance sprinkled throughout a game count that tests patience and grit.

Psychologically, Avier’s tilt factor sits modestly at 9 — so while the occasional frustration happens, it’s clearly a minor storm in an otherwise calm and strategic mind. Interestingly enough, Avier is much more dangerous in rated matches versus casual play, boasting a win difference over 39%, proving that the pressure really fuels their fire.

Outside the numbers, what really shines is Avier’s love for the secrets of chess openings (the stats say “Top Secret,” but maybe it’s really just a clever disguise). With a win rate hovering around 40% in rapid and a respectable 36% in blitz on these opening lines, it seems Avier enjoys the element of mystery as much as the game itself.

Whether it’s at the stroke of 13:00 with a stellar 52% win rate or the surprising 100% crushing power at 12:00 and 1:00, Avier’s chess clock presence is as quirky as it is effective. Is Avier a grandmaster in the making or just delightfully unpredictable? Either way, one thing is certain: every move tells a story, and Avier Velez Casado’s story is just getting started.
