Manu 😎 - The Chess Maverick
Meet manu12134576, a lightning-fast bullet and blitz enthusiast who dances on the edge of time and sanity! With a peak Bullet rating of 1064 and a blitz high of 967 achieved in early 2025, Manu strikes the chessboard with fast moves and even faster reflexes, often winning on time rather than checkmate - a true testament to a player who thinks at the speed of light (or the speed of the clock!).
Despite a current rating rollercoaster, Manu’s average blitz and bullet ratings hover around the mid-600s to 700s, with a steady army of battles fought: over 2,000 games logged and an impressively close win-loss record, underscoring resilience and grit. The longest winning streak? A spicy 11 wins in a row. The longest losing streak? A humbling 9 - but hey, every grandmaster was once a beginner!

Opening Repertoire Highlights
Manu digs both classic and sneaky: the Center Game and Italian Game perform admirably in blitz with win rates near 78%. The bullet games are peppered with kingside fianchetto lines and modern defenses, showcasing adaptability. The secret sauce? A mysterious "Top Secret" opening used in 476 bullet games yielding a 51% win rate (sounds like code for epic combos!).
Peak Moments & Recent Battles
Manu reached peak rapid rating of 1050 and blitz peak of 967 in February 2025; bullet peak came slightly earlier the same month.
