Daniel Pulvett - International Master (FIDE)
Daniel Pulvett, known in the chess realm as MassDeep, is an International Master whose passion for blitz and bullet chess games is as enduring as his impressive winning streaks. Since 2015, Daniel has mastered the art of rapid-fire chess, advancing from a blitz rating of 1930 to over 2050 just in a year's time, while his bullet rating impressively cracked the 2000 barrier. Like a grandmaster ninja, he’s quick on his feet—if those feet were strategically placed on a chessboard!
Chess Style
Known for his strong endgame play, Daniel dives deep into the trenches with an average of nearly 69 moves per win, showing patience and persistence. If patience is a virtue, then Daniel's definitely a saint of the 64 squares. His win rate with White sits comfortably above 54%, proving he doesn’t just open well, he finishes even better. Interestingly, his early resignation rate is a proud zero—Daniel never quits, though his psychological tilt factor suggests a mere 10% chance of chess-induced frustration.
Tactical Genius
With an astonishing 88.7% comeback rate and a perfect 100% win after losing a piece, Daniel is the comeback kid everyone fears to play against. Losing a piece? No problem! It's just part of his grand plan to lure opponents into a false sense of security before snatching victory at the last moment. Opponents beware: his one-sided loss rate is practically non-existent—his games are battles, not blowouts.
Performance Highlights
- Longest Winning Streak: 12 games – a streak strong enough to convince anyone he’s in the zone.
- Blitz Win Rate: Nearly 49% over hundreds of games; Bullet Win Rate: over 68%, proving he's got lightning-fast reflexes.
- Favorite Openings: Top-secret strategies keep opponents guessing (and scratching their heads).
- Best days to challenge him: Saturdays and Fridays, when he boasts win rates above 54%—weekend warriors, take note!
Opponent Anecdotes
Daniel's record against a vast range of opponents reads like a thrilling saga — 100% wins against a noteworthy list of challengers such as martijndeboorder, gabcur, and jt_jt, and some mysterious 0% win rates against others who may be his kryptonite. It's said MassDeep has the chess equivalent of a black book—but with a sense of humor, as he graciously turns every loss into a lesson (at least most of the time).
Fun Fact
Daniel's rated games vs casual games difference suggests he might be less fond of casual play—maybe because he’s secretly aiming to crush everyone, one rating point at a time. Plus, his peak blitz rating in 2016 was an impressive 2284, and his bullet peaked at 2285 the year prior. Almost poetic symmetry, wouldn’t you say?
In the realm where pawns become queens and knights leap like ninjas, MassDeep reigns supreme — a tactician with steadfast nerves, blistering speed, and a penchant for epic comebacks.
