Nancy Flores Mirabal (aka Nannn9)

Woman Candidate Master | Fearless Bullet Blitzer

Nancy Flores Mirabal is a chess player who means business — and occasionally, a little mischief. Holding the prestigious Woman Candidate Master title from FIDE, Nancy has proven to be a tenacious tactician on the 64 squares. Some call her a sharp shooter in the Bullet format, others say she practically breathes the game at breakneck speed.

Starting with modest ratings just a few years ago, Nancy’s Bullet rating skyrocketed from under 1600 in mid-2023 to a blazing peak of 2113 by June 2024 — and she hasn't stopped there. Her Blitz prowess is no joke either, hitting a peak rating of 2298 in August 2024, a testament to her multi-speed dexterity, whether milliseconds or minutes.

With over 276 Bullet games under her belt, Nancy confidently embraces “Unknown Openings” with a cool 53% win rate—but when it’s time to reveal her secret weapon, the “Top Secret” opening rocks an impressive 83% win rate. It's like she’s got a secret stash of chess ninja moves—shh, don’t tell the opponents!

Her playing style is a fascinating mix of persistence and patience: an 81% frequency of endgames means Nancy isn’t one to quit early — in fact, her early resignation rate is a low 2.5%, showing she fights til the very end. On average, victories unfold in about 65 moves, while losses often stretch beyond 77 moves—because even when the going gets tough, Nancy keeps every piece on their toes.

Did we mention her comebacks? An astonishing 83% comeback rate proves Nancy thrives under pressure. Losing a piece doesn't discourage her—instead, she turns it into a battle cry, winning nearly half the games after a loss of material.

Timing is everything, and Nancy plays her best at 5 PM, when her win rate peaks at 75%. Clearly, that's when the queen and bishop start conspiring for victory.

Recent Highlight

On May 20, 2025, in a tense Blitz match against the formidable Siemba (rated 2305), Nancy demonstrated strategic brilliance and cool nerves, securing the win by resignation after a beautifully executed midgame assault featuring the English Opening Caro-Kann Defensive System. That game showcased her patience, precision, and knack for grinding down opponents.

Friends and Foes

Nancy regularly clashed with familiar rivals like realtor82 and ayelenchess, showing her grit with a commendable 60% win rate against realtor82 and about 30% against ayelenchess—chess has never been dull with those two on her radar.

Personality Insight

With a tilt factor of just 6, Nancy keeps her cool even on brutal losing streaks. And with a longest winning streak of 9 games, it’s clear that once she’s on a roll, she’s absolutely unstoppable!

Whether she’s squeezing every advantage from seemingly quiet positions or throwing out “Top Secret” surprise openings, Nancy Flores Mirabal plays chess with heart, humor, and a hint of enigma. Watch out world, Nannn9 is here to outwit, outplay, and outlast!

Coaching Feedback for Nancy Flores Mirabal

Hello Nancy! I reviewed several of your recent games and am impressed by your overall strategic understanding and fighting spirit. Here is some targeted feedback to help you improve your game even further:

Strengths

  • Opening Knowledge: You have a good grasp of various English Opening lines and the related pawn structures. Your consistent use of English Opening variations shows solid theoretical preparation.
  • Positional Play: You successfully create pressure on weaknesses and play active piece maneuvers, especially with your bishops and rooks supporting pawn breaks and infiltrations.
  • Endgame Technique: In several games, your precise rook and pawn endgame technique helped you convert small advantages into wins.
  • Resourcefulness: Even when facing higher rated opponents, you find tactical opportunities and stay resourceful, which is great for your confidence and growth.

Areas to Work On

  • Handling Tactical Pressure: In a few losses, your king safety was compromised after early exchanges or aggressive attacks by opponents. Focusing on improving your tactical awareness to foresee threats and reinforce your king's position could reduce losing chances.
  • Avoid Premature Attacks: Sometimes your attempts at counterplay happened too early without sufficient development, giving your opponents the opportunity to capitalize. Prioritize solid development and controlling the center before launching attacks.
  • Middlegame Planning: Work on creating clear middlegame plans beyond reactive play. Setting goals such as improving piece placement or preparing specific pawn breaks will help make your attacks more effective.
  • Time Management: There were moments where you spent considerable time in openings or early middlegame and had less time later. Balancing your clock usage better will help prevent time trouble and blunders in complex positions.

Tips & Recommendations

  • Review the critical moments of your losses (such as the game against the user losageless and others) by replaying the moves and understanding the key moves that led to vulnerabilities. This will help you avoid similar pitfalls.
  • Practice tactical puzzles regularly focusing on mating nets and king safety defense to sharpen your awareness during complex attacks.
  • Consider studying classic games in the English Opening and Sicilian Defense to deepen your understanding of typical strategic ideas and plans.
  • Analyze your time usage per phase in games: try to make quicker decisions in familiar opening lines so you save time for critical middlegame and endgame moments.

Keep up the hard work and dedication! With your solid foundations and continuous improvement, you will keep climbing the rating ladder.
