Sergei_Pereira

Meet Sergei_Pereira, a blitz battler with a knack for turning chaotic board states into victories. Rising from a modest 1339 in early 2016 to a peak blitz rating of 2196 by March 2017, Sergei has proven that persistence and a dash of cunning pay off — especially when the clock is ticking.

Playing Style & Strengths

Most of Sergei's chess escapades happen in blitz, where lightning-fast moves are the norm and hesitation is punished. With an impressive longest winning streak of 12 games, Sergei knows how to catch opponents off-guard and ride a wave of momentum. Endgames aren't scary either; he ventures into them over 76% of the time, clearly enjoying the intricate battles when the queens have dwindled.

Early resignation rate is a modest 4.67%, so when Sergei starts a game, it’s usually for keeps. Not one to easily throw in the towel, his comeback rate after setbacks is a heroic 83.21%, showing both resilience and tactical alertness — losing a piece? No problem, Sergei just doubles down with almost 50% chance to still win.

Opening & Opponents

When it comes to openings, Sergei plays the Unknown and Top Secret variations with almost equal comfort, cruising with a roughly 50% win rate in both blitz and rapid games. A true mystery wrapped in strategy! And if you ever see him face the likes of heinichesspy or maqritos, be advised Sergei's record is battle-tested though slightly mixed — but hey, nobody’s perfect, right?

Stats Snapshot

  • Blitz Record: 414 wins, 360 losses, 49 draws
  • Rapid Record: 1 win, 4 losses
  • Bullet Record: 2 wins, 0 losses — small sample size, but undefeated nonetheless!
  • Peak Ratings:
    • Blitz: 2196 (Mar 2017)
    • Rapid: 1601 (Apr 2016)
    • Bullet: 1492 (Mar 2017)

Psychological Quirks & Timing

Beware around 1pm — Sergei's “best time of day to play” — when his tactical awareness reaches its peak. Surprisingly, despite a decent tilt factor of 8 (everyone has those “ugh” moments), Sergei manages to stay in the game mentally strong. Also, he’s a night owl for blitz success: evening hours see his win rate soar above 60%.

A Memorable Finale

In one of his recent notable wins, Sergei dazzled the board using the Reti Opening with a twist, famously winning on time and securing the top spot against an opponent rated over 2200 — clearly a champion who knows how to manage both pieces and clocks.

In summary: Sergei_Pereira is a blitz warrior, a comeback kid, and a strategist with a secret sauce. Opponents beware — this is a player who fights till the last second, with sharp tactics and an unpredictable arsenal. We eagerly await his next explosive showdown!
