Profile: Nahom Bertelomewos (Nahom12345689)
Meet Nahom Bertelomewos, a rapidly rising star in the chess cosmos, known to friends and foes alike as Nahom12345689. With a knack for the Scandinavian Defense and a mysterious "Top Secret" opening strategy (no, it's not an actual Top Secret classified by the government, just his sneaky favorite moves), Nahom is a player who makes every game a thrilling rollercoaster.
As of mid-2025, Nahom's peak rapid rating is a solid 736, proving he’s no pushover on the board. His blitz and bullet ratings (549 and 567 respectively) hint at a player still warming up his tactical engines in those faster time controls – but watch out, he’s cooking up a storm there too!
Known for a strategic blend of patience and audacity, Nahom boasts a whopping 77% comeback rate after losing a piece – proving he doesn’t just take losses lying down. Whether it’s pulling off a clutch victory or charming spectators with his creative play, he excels in endgames, engaging in nearly half of his rapid games' endings.
His record speaks volumes: over 250 rapid wins, with a notable longest winning streak of 10 games, because sometimes, Nahom just refuses to lose. That said, even the best have their off days, and his longest losing streak of 9 is a testament to his resilience – a warrior returns stronger every time.
With a win rate over 50% in his "Top Secret" opening and a fierce 66.67% success using the Scandinavian and Four Knights Game, Nahom clearly loves to keep his opponents guessing. He’s also a master of psychological warfare; a tilt factor of 9 suggests he battles not only opponents but also that sneaky inner voice telling him to just resign already (Spoiler: he usually doesn't).
Chess hours? Midnight is Nahom's power hour – the best time for him to strike on the board and deliver checkmates with flair. With an average game length of just over 55 moves for wins, he’s got a marathon runner’s stamina and a sprinter’s punch.
