A FIDE Master Who Plays Like a Speedrunner
Benjamin Wagner, known on the server as Oxygen64, carries a FIDE Master title in one hand and a speeding ticket in the other. His preferred time control appears to be Blitz, but his true love is the chaos of Bullet. In a single month on the board he can rack up over 350 bullet games, most of them ending somewhere between handshakes and heartbreak.
He has the comeback instincts of a soap opera lead. When he loses a piece, he still wins about 48.65% of the time, and his comeback rate sits at an absurd 88.63%. He is not the kind of player who resigns after a dropped pawn; he is the kind who waits until your clock cries.
Openings, Some Sensible and Some Not
Oxygen64 runs through openings like a toddler through a toy aisle. In Blitz, his Sicilian Defense has a roaring 71% win rate, and the Barnes Defense appears often enough to be a real signature, also at 71%. He also enjoys the Amazon Attack, which is either a philosophical statement or a beautiful accident. The
