Florian Kaczur - International Master Extraordinaire

Known in the chess circles as kflorian98, Florian Kaczur is no ordinary player. Holding the prestigious title of International Master from FIDE, Florian has navigated the 64 squares with a tactical prowess that leaves opponents both baffled and begrudgingly impressed.

Rating Rollercoaster & Style

Florian’s blitz rating has been a wild ride, touching dizzying heights of nearly 2820, a number that’s as intense as his lightning-fast calculations. His bullet performances are equally electrifying, peaking past 3000 – making him one of the quickest brains on the fast chess highway. Daily and rapid formats show a more relaxed side, but don’t let that fool you; the IM’s strategy remains razor sharp.

Playing Style & Strengths

Preferring to dance deep into the endgames—where roughly 82% of his games go—Florian is a master of perseverance and precision. What's more, his games often last around 78 moves when victorious, proving stamina and patience are part of his secret weapon.

With a bounce-back rate close to 90% after setbacks and a near 98% win record even after losing a piece, Florian is a comeback artist and psychological ninja. Opponents beware: giving him a small advantage is like poking a sleeping lion!

On & Off the Board

Curiously, Florian has an early resignation rate that’s low but non-negligible at around 1.85%, hinting that the IM knows when to pivot but won't give up without a fight.

His tilt factor stands at a humble 9 (chronically low for such a fierce competitor), meaning he keeps cool under pressure—except maybe when he’s lost his queen on move 3 (but who hasn't?).

Record & Rivals

With over 4,700 blitz wins and a strong majority win rate against many recurring opponents, Florian channels the spirit of a relentless gladiator on the digital battlefield. His longest winning streak spans an impressive 14 games, though his current streak rests at a strategic zero—perhaps plotting the next assault.

Trivia

  • Favorite opening? Top secret. (But with almost 10,000 blitz games under his belt, he’s clearly loyal.)
  • Best time to challenge him? Probably at 6 or 0 hour, where his win rate soars above 70%—maybe he’s a midnight warrior or an early bird genius.
  • Average game length? About 80 moves—don't expect quick skirmishes, Florian plays for the long haul.

In summary, Florian Kaczur is a well-rounded, truly formidable International Master with a flair for the dramatic, an eye for tactical opportunities, and the mental toughness of a champion. Whether blitzing through opponents or grinding down pawns in marathon endgames, Florian continues to prove himself an enchanting figure in the chess cosmos.
