Authorized Speed Run Account of GM Hikaru Nakamura

Grandmaster | Blitz & Bullet Chess Wizard

Meet SanitationEngineer, the authorized speedrun alter ego of the legendary GM Hikaru Nakamura — a grandmaster official certified by FIDE and a speed chess phenomenon who can make your queen look like she's on a casual stroll, when in reality it’s a carbon-fueled sprint to victory.

Chess Credentials & Stats

  • Peak Blitz Rating: 3007 (August 2020) — Yes, you read that right. Over 3000!
  • Peak Bullet Rating: 1160 (August 2020) — Even at bullet, this account flashes brilliance.
  • Blitz Win Rate: A staggering 89.07% across Top Secret openings, with a total of 366 games and an almost comical 326 wins.
  • Overall Blitz Record: 326 wins, 37 losses, and 3 draws. Can someone say chess machine?
  • Longest Winning Streak: 130 games. Time to break out the champagne.

Playing Style & Psychology

SanitationEngineer excels in blitz battles where tactical awareness is king — boasting a 92.12% win rate even after losing a piece. This grandmaster’s psychological armor is tight, with a low tilt factor of 13, ensuring cool nerves even in critical moments. With an average of 65 moves per win and 88.7% success with the white pieces, this speedrun account proves that fast doesn’t mean reckless.

Pro tip: the best moment to challenge this titan is at 9 PM local time, because when the clock strikes 21:00, the lightning reflexes emerge in full force.

Notable Opponents & Rivalries

While this account has a vast roster of nearly flawless wins against many players, the most frequent friendly-fire comes from knightmares905 (13 games) and noel-bot (11 games), who have tasted a rare share of success, but mostly ended up as speedrun victims.

Recent Triumph Highlight

The latest masterpiece unfolded on August 31, 2020, in a blitz duel against none other than Daniel Naroditsky. Commanding white, SanitationEngineer showcased flawless technique in the “Sodium Attack,” culminating in a resignation victory after a crafty piece dance followed by precision strikes. You can relive the adrenaline here.

Fun Fact

Despite the grandmaster status, there’s an amusing 32.43% early resignation rate. Because why drag the game when the win is clear? Efficiency is the name of the game — in speed and spirit.
