Pablo Toloza Soto - International Master

Pablo, also known in the digital realm as rekopchess, is an International Master who has been slinging pawns and capturing rooks with impressive precision since at least 2012. Rated as a blitz and bullet powerhouse, Pablo has battled through nearly 10,000 bullet games, showing true resilience and tactical acuity.

With a peak bullet rating soaring beyond 2500 in March 2025, Pablo has proven to be a force to reckon with on the board. Known for his signature "Top Secret" opening strategy (because clearly, sharing would spoil the mystery!), he boasts a respectable winning rate of over 52% in bullet chess—more than enough to keep opponents sweating.

When it comes to style, Pablo avoids early resignations like a sneaky bishop lurking in the shadows, with a minuscule 0.77% early resignation rate. His games tend to be marathon fights, with an average winning game stretching over 71 moves—patience is a virtue, after all!

Psychologically, Pablo is a tough competitor, showing an impressive 82% comeback rate after unfavorable situations and a surprisingly low tilt factor of 15. He shines brightest in the early morning hours, particularly around 6 AM, likely fueled by coffee and the thrill of the game.

Whether blitzing opponents at lightning speed or grinding out classic, strategic endgames, Pablo has mastered his craft with a blend of tactical insight and endurance. Opponents beware: when Pablo sits at the board, you're likely to face a persistent tactician with a penchant for checkmate and a wicked sense of humor.

Recent Highlights:

  • Most recent victory: a swift checkmate in a dramatic battle featuring sharp play with the English Opening.
  • Recent defeat? Rare and hard-fought — even International Masters lose sometimes, but they do so gracefully.

In summary, Pablo Toloza Soto is a dedicated chess warrior turning 64 squares into a battlefield of wits and fun. One can only imagine his motto might be: "Checkmate or coffee – whichever comes first."
