Matthias Dann (aka Maus7) - International Master
Matthias Dann, better known in chess circles as Maus7, is an International Master with a blitz rating that climbs nearly as fast as his opponents’ hopes fade. With a peak blitz rating soaring to an impressive 2739 and a bullet max of 2771, Matthias has proven himself a formidable force on the board – and presumably a terror at blitz chess night.
Since 2019, Matthias has played over 400 blitz games, boasting a win rate north of 62% with a secret opening repertoire that opponents only wish they knew. His legendary longest winning streak of 18 games shows he's not just about quick moves but consistent domination. Notably, his comeback rate after losing material is a staggering 92.92%, with a flawless 100% win rate after losing a piece. Clearly, giving up a knight is just part of his master plan.
Off the board, Matthias's strategy seems to include a robust psychological game, though even titans have their off days—with a tilt factor rated at 8, he's human after all. With an average game length of about 77 moves per win or loss, Matthias clearly enjoys a thorough battle rather than a rapid-fire shootout. If patience is a virtue, he's practically a saint.
When not dismantling opponents, Maus7 seems to favor Fridays and Mondays, where his win rate can soar near 78%, but watch out Saturday evenings—his win rate slips dramatically, perhaps due to weekend distractions or a sneaky social life.
So whether you're facing Maus7 in a bullet blitz or a marathon endgame, be prepared for tactical surprises, relentless pressure, and the occasional secret move that might as well be encrypted for all you know. Losing to Matthias is no shame — unless you lose to him without putting up a fight. Then it’s just embarrassing.
