Sandromareco is a dedicated and resilient chess competitor whose career has been marked by a steady rise in performance and a versatile style of play. Specializing in blitz chess, his journey began in 2014 with a respectable starting rating of 2283 and has since evolved into consistently fierce performances, reaching a peak of over 2900 in recent years. His rating progression from 2014 to 2024 shows his remarkable development, with notable triumphs in blitz formats and solid performances in rapid, daily, and bullet games.

Renowned for his aggressive approach in fast-paced blitz and rapid formats, Sandromareco is also distinguished by his deep understanding of the endgame; his high endgame frequency of 85.5% reflects an ability to convert small advantages into victories. His games are normally lengthy affairs, with an average of about 79 moves per win, demonstrating both strategic depth and endurance.

In blitz encounters, his prepared choices and customized systems have frequently yielded a 100% win rate in select openings, linking his practical play with a solid theoretical foundation. He is also known to adjust his strategies adeptly, evidenced by a professional approach to time management and an ability to maintain composure even when confronted with pressure – his tilt factor is kept low at 7, and his psychological trends indicate a balanced mindset in rated games compared to casual matches.

Sandromareco’s career also includes distinguished streaks – his longest winning run of 34 games underlines his potential when everything comes together, even though his current winning streak has seen a reset. His performance metrics by day and hour of play reveal a player who continues to strive for consistency and excellence. Whether playing as White or Black, his win rates of 54% on White and 50% on Black show a well-rounded game.
