Nathan M. - The Relentless Chess Warrior

Nathan M., known in the chess circles as the tenacious strategist with an affinity for long battles, has charted an impressive journey on the 64 squares. Starting at a modest Rapid rating of 544 in 2022, he quickly climbed to an impressive 1382 by 2023, and has been holding steady above 1300 since then, proving that slow and steady wins more than just races.

His Blitz and Bullet games tell tales of a player who loves the adrenaline rush almost as much as careful calculation. Nathan soared from a Blitz rating of around 518 in 2022 to an impressive 1113 by 2025. In Bullet, his peak touched 1113 in 2024—showing he’s no stranger to lightning-fast tactics and tricky endgames.

Speaking of endgames, Nathan must have a thing for long marches on the board: his average moves per win hover around 65, and even his losses drag on for over 74 moves, hinting at battles that would tire even the hardiest gladiators. His love for the endgame is evident, with nearly 70% of his games reaching that phase.

Don’t be fooled by Nathan’s patience; when he loses a piece, he fights back with a remarkable 100% win rate afterwards—talk about turning lemons into, well, checkmates! His longest winning streak reached a spine-tingling 10 games, although currently the streak meter rests at zero, perhaps waiting for the next surge.

Psychologically, Nathan is about as steady as they come with a tilt factor of 10 (low enough to keep calm, though not immune to a game or two of grumbling). Early resignations are rare, just under 2%, because Nathan believes every game is a story worth finishing.

His win rates as White and Black show a balanced player: slightly above 50% when playing White and a respectable 47% with Black, proving his versatility across the board. While Saturday might be his off-day with a 45% win rate, 10 AM seems to be his sweet spot with a dazzling 73% success rate—make sure not to schedule a game with him before that!

Opponents beware: Nathan’s tactical awareness is sharp, boasting a comeback rate over 76%, meaning giving him even a small opening might not end well. Despite facing fierce rivals, his overall rapid game win count outpaces his losses (2477 wins to 2345 losses), along with solid standings in Blitz and Bullet.

In the grand scheme, Nathan M. is a chess lover who thrives on resilience, calculated endurance, and a love for the dramatic twists of the game. Whether sprinting in Bullet or enduring in Rapid, he’s a formidable player always ready to turn the tables.
