Meet Tomer, a chess enthusiast whose journey on the 64 squares is a thrilling rollercoaster of brilliance, determination, and the occasional facepalm moment. Known in the chess realm by the handle lansvacer, Tomer has battled opponents across various time controls, showing a fearless approach whether in blitz, bullet, rapid, or daily games.

Rating Highlights & Style

Tomer’s peak ratings reveal a player with a sweet spot for the Daily format, reaching a personal best of 1123 in early 2025, backed up by a sturdy Rapid rating climb up to 920 during the spring of 2024. Blitz and Bullet ratings saw some lively fluctuations, with peaks around the 660 and 465 marks respectively.

Although not yet a grandmaster (both in title and in self-confidence), Tomer's playing style is an engaging mix of patience and risk: he tends to play longer in losses but keeps his winning games tighter, averaging about 49 moves per win and 57 moves per loss. Also, Tomer is quite the endgame enthusiast, with nearly half of the games touching the endgame — a true sign of a player who refuses to quit early.

Strengths & Quirks

• Psychological resilience: With a comeback win rate of 66%, Tomer embodies the fighting spirit of a phoenix rising from the ashes of lost pieces.
• Early resignation factor: Around 6%, proving he sometimes chooses to save time rather than futilely attempt a miracle comeback.
• Peak performance time: A surprising yet useful fact — Tomer plays best around 8 AM, so consider scheduling your matches then if you want a challenge.

Opening Book and Preferences

Tomer enjoys a wide repertoire but shows fondness for tricky and less trodden paths in Blitz such as the Top Secret and Scandinavian Defense variations with a 50% win rate there — a real strategist who likes keeping his moves mysterious. In Daily and Rapid games, Tomer favors the King's Pawn and Queen's Pawn openings, particularly sharp variations like the King's Knight and Chigorin variations, boasting win rates hovering around 60%.

Memorable Battles

Tomer's recent victories and defeats showcase his tactical eye and stubborn will. In a suspenseful Daily game in May 2025, he deftly outmaneuvered BishopBiopsy by dominating on time after a creative Polish Opening gambit. Just days later, Tomer delivered checkmate against Rs4grisNardoMongate using the precise moves of the Queen's Pawn Zukertort Chigorin Variation, demonstrating finesse and patience.

On the flipside, Tomer’s losses remind us even the best have their off days — a devastating checkmate by ANDROIDDESTROYER in June 2025 via the Scandinavian Defense Closed was a bitter pill, but one he likely reviewed twice (or thrice). In bullet and blitz, some games slip away to time or tactical blunders, but hey, that’s the charm of fast-paced chess!

Whether grinding through daily games at dawn, strategizing in rapid bouts, or firing off quick bullet games, Tomer stays hungry for that sweet taste of victory — and sometimes the bittersweet taste of defeat.
