Adrien Anciaux - FIDE Master and Tactical Maestro
Meet Adrien Anciaux, also known by the chess aficionados as lapleutrerie. A distinguished FIDE Master with an eye for tactical brilliance and a heart that races faster than a bullet chess game, Adrien has been steadily climbing the ranks since 2018. Starting with modest bullet ratings barely cracking 1100, this player cooked up a storm to reach a blistering peak of 2747 in 2025—a journey that’s nothing short of a chess superhero origin story.
Adrien's style is a fascinating blend of patience and aggression. With an Endgame Frequency of over 77%, they prefer to outwit opponents in the long game, amassing experience that pays off when the board clears. The heroics don’t stop there: an unbelievable 99.74% win rate after losing a piece is testament to Adrien’s resourcefulness. When the going gets tough, lapleutrerie gets going, staging comebacks that would make Hollywood proud with an 86% comeback rate.
But chess isn't all hard moves and sharp tactics—Adrien also knows when to throw in the towel early (Early Resignation Rate just 1.62%), proving a sense of pragmatism amidst fierce competition. Balancing that, the average game length sort of tells the story too, with wins averaging around 71 moves and losses stretching out a bit longer at 76.
Looking at time analytics, the day matters. Wednesdays, Mondays, and Fridays are luckiest with win rates hovering near 57%. And if you ever want to catch Adrien at their peak, tune in around 8 AM or late evening (10 PM) because that's when lapleutrerie seems to channel a supernatural chess aura, maintaining win rates near 60%.
Known for a dynamic blitz and bullet game, Adrien has an impressive record against a wide array of opponents, people who dare challenge the Top Secret openings that this master employs with over 59% win rate in bullet alone. Some may say the secret is in the name.
In conclusion, whether it's rapid-fire moves or grinding out complex endgames, Adrien Anciaux embodies an inspiring journey from humble beginnings to tactical mastery. Whoever thought a bullet chess rating could reach over 2700 deserves a round of applause—and perhaps a warning label: Playing Adrien may cause excessive admiration and a sudden desire to improve your game.
