Flavio Rotunno (Ogmogrt) - The Bullet Speedster and Tactical Maestro

Flavio Rotunno, known online by the enigmatic alias Ogmogrt, is a chess player whose passion for the game is matched only by his lightning-fast moves in Bullet chess. With a peak Bullet rating soaring to an impressive 2668 in 2025, Flavio dominates the realm of ultra-fast chess, showing an uncanny ability to think and react in the blink of an eye.

Blazing Through the Ratings

Starting with a solid Bullet rating around 2322 in 2023, Flavio's relentless dedication and strategic mind pushed his rating above 2495 by 2025. His Blitz and Rapid performances, while not as fiery as his Bullet prowess, still showcase a well-rounded chess intellect with Blitz peaks near 2487 and consistent Rapid ratings of 2219.

Playing Style: Fast, Fierce, and Sometimes... Friendly

Don’t expect Flavio to linger too long in any position; his games average around 78 moves when winning—long for Bullet but a testament to his endurance. He cherishes the endgame, appearing in nearly 74% of his matches, where his tactical awareness truly shines. Surprisingly, he only resigns early about 1.23% of the time—he prefers to battle till the bitter end, or until he blunders a piece (which, fun fact, he can sometimes recover from with a perfect 100% win rate after losing a piece!).

Psychological Toughness

With an admirable Comeback Rate of 89.19%, Flavio rarely cries over lost pawns or pieces. However, like any mortal, he experiences his share of tilt (measured at 11), which he combats with a steady weekly rhythm, showing the best win streaks on Wednesdays and Saturdays—perhaps preferring to scheme midweek or celebrate chess victories on the weekend.

The Opponents Speak

Flavio has tangled with thousands of opponents, clocking games against some like touchepasamonroi a whopping 65 times. Some adversaries enjoy mixed success against him, but beware: players like "livingstockfish" and "gmjjbyrd" have a 100% loss rate to Flavio, a testament to his tactical dominance.

Fun Facts & Quirks

  • His longest winning streak: a neat 10 games running. Clearly, when the stars align, Flavio is unstoppable.
  • His win rates peak during the quiet hours of 23:00 (52.17%) and 01:00 (50%), proving that sometimes playing chess while others sleep is the secret to success.
  • Flavio’s favorite move? Keeping it classified as "Top Secret" — after all, who wants to reveal their opening repertoire?

In the end, Flavio Rotunno is a chess player who thrives on speed, resilience, and a bit of mystery. Whether you face him in Bullet or Blitz, it’s best to bring your A-game and keep your wits about you—because Ogmogrt does not just play chess, he blitzes through it like a whirlwind!

Feedback for Flavio Rotunno

Hi Flavio, after reviewing your recent games, here are some constructive points to help you improve further:

Strengths

  • Active Piece Play: You consistently seek dynamic piece activity, such as well-timed exchanges and central control, which often put your opponents under pressure.
  • Opening Repertoire: You show good familiarity with lines like the Scandinavian, Pirc, and King's Pawn variations. Your preparation allows you to reach playable middlegames with chances for initiative.
  • Attacking Instincts: You are comfortable launching kingside pawn storms and seek attacking chances, especially with moves like g4/g5 and timely sacrifices, demonstrating a fighting spirit.

Areas for Improvement

  • Time Management: Some games ended due to time forfeits despite good positions. Try to keep better pace, especially in critical moments, to avoid rushing decisions.
  • Endgame Technique: A few endgames slipped away due to imprecise calculation or passive king activity. Work on fundamental endgame knowledge and king activation in simplified positions.
  • Positional Understanding: While aggressive, at times you may benefit from deeper evaluation before pawn pushes (like early g4/g5). Strengthening your grasp of pawn structure and piece coordination will enhance your consistency.

Specific Suggestions

  • Review critical moments in your recent wins where you achieved clear advantages, such as move 30 in the Scandinavian game where precise rook placement gave you strong control.
  • Analyze losses focusing on pawn structure weaknesses and missed defensive resources, as in games where counterattacks from opponents overturned the balance.
  • Practice common theoretical endgames and key tactical motifs relevant to your openings to reinforce your confidence in transition phases.

Overall, you are on a promising path with solid tactical awareness and fighting chess. By tightening time control and refining your positional judgment, you will see steady rating improvements. Keep studying and enjoying the game!
