Lance Henderson de La Fuente GM

Lance Henderson de La Fuente - Grandmaster Extraordinaire

Meet Lance Henderson de La Fuente, a chess player whose pawns and knights have danced their way to the prestigious title of Grandmaster awarded by FIDE. Not just your average keyboard warrior, Lance has blitzed through opponents with a blend of finesse and relentless calculation since at least 2012, rocking ratings that would make even the toughest Sicilian Defense break into a sweat.

His blitz rating skyrocketed from a humble 1126 in 2013 up to an astonishing peak of 2770 in 2019 – just shy of the chess Olympian gods! Bullet games? Lance isn’t just fast, he’s lightning fast, boasting a maximum of 2643, proving he can strategize as quickly as he can click. Notably, his one-of-a-kind “Top Secret” opening keeps foes guessing, boasting a win rate nudging 50% in blitz and a cheeky 60% in bullet.

Lance’s style? A curious concoction of patience and tactical awareness, favoring endgames with a whopping 83% frequency and averaging around 80 moves per win—because why finish quickly when you can make it dramatic? And should things look grim after losing a piece, don’t worry – his 100% win rate after piece loss proves he’s the ultimate comeback kid.

When the clock ticks and pressure mounts, Lance doesn’t tilt easily. His psychological edge keeps tilt factor low, though his current winning streak is resting at zero, so maybe he’s just plotting the next big run.

Off the board, Lance’s opponents include a varied cast from "zmeeed67" (not a fan apparently) to "stollenmonster," who has survived a perfect 100% win rate loss record. Lance’s repertoire of victorious battles exceeds 3,100 wins—enough to fill several chessboards, if you were so inclined to collect trophies that way.

In short: Lance Henderson de La Fuente is not just playing chess; he’s rewriting the playbook, preferably while sipping a coffee at odd hours – apparently, 6 AM yields a 72% win rate, the prime time for grandmaster maneuvers!

Watch out world, the “Top Secret” opening master is always plotting one move ahead.
