Iimnnmii: The Bullet Chess Marathoner
Who Is Iimnnmii?
Iimnnmii is an online chess player whose username looks like a cat walked across the keyboard and whose game count looks like a second job. First spotted on the board in late 2022 with a rapid rating in the 600s, Iimnnmii has since stacked up more than 40,000 games across bullet, blitz, and rapid, grinding all the way to a bullet peak of 1960 (2026-08-18) and a blitz peak of 1647 (2026-09-04).
The strategy has never changed much: show up, queue again, and let sheer volume wear the world down. It sounds simple. It has somehow worked.
The Bullet Chess Ironman
Bullet is where Iimnnmii actually lives. The career bullet ledger reads 13,262 wins, 14,469 losses, and 1,425 draws, a near .500 record spread across roughly 29,000 games. Some months defy belief: 1,876 bullet games in October 2023, 1,624 more in July 2026, and 1,264 in September 2026. That is not a hobby. That is a cardiovascular event.
Blitz is the officially preferred time control, with more than 8,000 games and a slow, stubborn climb from the 700s in early 2023 into the 1600s by late 2026.
How Iimnnmii Wins Chess Games
Here is the twist: with tens of thousands of games on record, Iimnnmii does not checkmate all that often. Career checkmate wins: 256. Career wins by timeout: 1,423. The clock is the real weapon, and it is wielded with disturbing enthusiasm.
When the win does come, it usually arrives the long way. Wins average 82 moves while losses average just 69, and about 77% of games march into an endgame. The comeback rate sits at 86.73%, and Iimnnmii still wins roughly 45% of games after dropping a piece. Early surrender happens in only about 7% of games, a polite way of saying the flag gets dragged everywhere.
Streaks tell the emotional story: a 13-game winning run on one end and a 24-game losing skid on the other. Bullet chess giveth, and bullet chess taketh away.
Opening Repertoire: d4 Today, d4 Tomorrow
Iimnnmii is a 1.d4 loyalist of nearly religious devotion. In 2026, d4 was the first move 3,736 times. e4 was played seven times. Seven.
The most-trodden blitz path is the Australian Defense at 768 games, closely followed by a fondness for the Amar Gambit, the best-performing weapon at a 53.3% win rate. As Black, the Sicilian Defense has absorbed 795 blitz games, while the Philidor Defense quietly posts the best bullet win rate at 53.9%. There is also a long-running affair with the Poisoned Pawn Variation of the London System, plus recurring experiments with the Diemer-Duhm Gambit that hover just above the break-even line.
The Nemesis Ledger
No prolific online career is complete without recurring villains, and Iimnnmii has assembled a deep bench.
- n7storm6: 360 games, record 56-297-7. Nearly 300 losses to one opponent and still queueing for more is either stubbornness or true love.
- rufusmod: 51 games, 0 wins, 50 losses, 1 draw. The single draw is presumably framed on a wall somewhere.
- Kirito: 198 games at 45-143-10, and spreewaldentertainment over 170 games at 38-128-4. Familiar faces, familiar pain.
- MajinMike924: 80 games at 38-36-6, and phyve5 at 24-11-9. Living proof that when the matchup is right, Iimnnmii wins the close ones too.
Quirks and Fun Facts
- Peak form arrives around 11:00, where the win rate touches 50%. The 2 a.m. hour drops to 41.5%, a number that explains a lot.
- Performs about 18 points better in rated games than in casual ones. Built for the scoreboard.
- Wins 73.7% of games against lower-rated opposition and 26.5% against higher-rated foes. The ladder is climbed one painful rung at a time.
- The rook is the favorite checking piece with 29,910 career checks delivered. Opponents prefer to annoy Iimnnmii with the queen, 44,507 times and counting.
- Stalemate collector: 39 stalemate draws, zero stalemate wins, zero stalemate losses. When Iimnnmii stalemates you, nobody wins, and that appears to be the point.
- Longest winning streak: 13. Longest losing streak: 24. Current response to both: requeue anyway.
