Pablo Garcia Cardenas (aka Oneofmyturns)
International Master Extraordinaire
Pablo Garcia Cardenas is not your average chess player. Awarded the prestigious title of International Master by FIDE, Pablo has danced through the ranks with a combination of tactical brilliance, psychological resilience, and a secret stash of chess magic.
From bullet to blitz to rapid and daily formats, Pablo's chess journey reads like an epic saga. With a peak bullet rating soaring to an astounding 2891 as of April 2024, this player strikes at lightning speed while maintaining extraordinary accuracy. Blitz skills are equally formidable, peaking at 2868, making Pablo an unstoppable whirlwind on the board.
Notable achievements include an almost flawless daily chess win rate of 88.9%, proving that even when time stretches, Pablo remains a strategist of the highest order. Their comeback rate? A jaw-dropping 83% - because giving up is simply not in the vocabulary of Oneofmyturns.
Playing Style & Personality
Known for a long average game length (81+ moves to victory), Pablo is definitely one who enjoys a good tussle rather than rushing to quick draws. Their psychological stamina keeps tilt at bay, with a low tilt factor of only 11 — a true zen master who plays best in the wee hours, particularly at 4 AM. A chess player who wakes the kings and queens at dawn to show them who’s boss!
Not exactly the easiest opponent either: some of their most played adversaries include seppecena and benecyrill, both having a tough time keeping pace. Pablo’s win rates against tricky foes vary wildly, so expect the unexpected on the board.
Recent Battles
Fresh from their recent games, Pablo delivered crushing victories in daily tournaments, including a masterful display in the Chess.com Staff Tournament 2024, clinching wins with tactical precision and time management skills sharp enough to make even seasoned grandmasters nod in approval.
However, even a chess wizard like Pablo has tasted bitter defeat – recent losses remind us that even immortals can slip up, but with a longest winning streak of 19 games, you better believe this IM is back stronger every time.
