Wojciech Reza (rezacz) - FIDE Master
Meet Wojciech Reza, the chess warrior known online as "rezacz," who wields the noble title of FIDE Master like a seasoned knight brandishing a finely honed blade. With a career full of tactical finesse and electrifying blitz battles, Wojciech has carved a reputation as a patient predator on the 64 squares — the kind who studies opponents' walls before storming through, usually with style and an occasional smirk.
Rating Journey & Style
From a blitz rating that skyrocketed to an awe-inspiring peak of 2792 in August 2017 to a bullet peak of 2660 in March 2025, Wojciech's rapid-fire mouse skills have dazzled foes across the globe. While their rapid and daily games show a thoughtful strategist with peaks pushing past 2300, it's blitz where "rezacz" truly shines — boasting a fierce 61.46% win rate with the intriguingly labeled "Top Secret" opening.
Notorious for a rather high 67% early resignation rate (because why drag out the defeat when you can regroup for the next battle?), Wojciech also enjoys fairly lengthy games — averaging 24.5 moves per win and a bit longer when things don't go their way. White pieces have been especially kind with a 61.14% win rate, while Black fights just as fiercely with nearly 60%.
Impressive Streaks & Tough Opponents
Our FIDE Master has weathered the ups and downs like a true gladiator: a longest winning streak of 35 games and a humbling yet teaching longest losing streak of 12. The current streak might be cooling at zero, but when "rezacz" ignites, expect fireworks.
Among Wojciech's favorite sparring partners are larso, mysteryshuttler, and pknm — rivals that have helped hone the edge of this grandmaster-in-the-making. Opponents beware: opponents like itamar02 and opD have seen Wojciech’s perfect 100% win rate, proving no puzzle is unsolvable.
Recent Battles - Tactical Feats
On April 25, 2025, in a thrilling encounter of the Old Indian Defense, "rezacz" outmaneuvered a keen 2451-rated adversary on time, showcasing ninja-like calm and control when every second counts. Another quick resignation that day also reflects Wojciech's knack for convincing opponents that resistance is futile—because when your opponent’s king is already thinking about surrender, why delay the inevitable?
Fun Facts & Quirks
- Affectionately known to combine deep tactical awareness with a "no nonsense" approach, proven by a solid 54% win rate after losing a piece — talk about not letting minor setbacks ruin your day!

In sum, Wojciech Reza is not just a player but a chess raconteur, mastering complex lines and winning with both precision and panache.
