Meet sre-sam, a swift tactician and a bullet-speed gladiator on the chessboard. Starting from humble beginnings with a bullet rating in the 500s back in 2017, sre-sam has blitzed forward to achieve a peak bullet rating of 1736 as of July 2024. When it comes to the rapid realm, sre-sam may take a bit more time, maxing out at 894, but hey, they clearly prefer their chess fast and furious!
If rapid or daily games were a quiet stroll in the park, bullet and blitz are an adrenaline-pumping sprint. With over 600 blitz games in recent months and hundreds more bullet matches, sre-sam's dedication is unquestionable. Their blitz rating soared to an impressive 1609, showing no mercy in the fast-paced duels.
Opening Choices & Style
An innovator and strategist, sre-sam favors offbeat but effective openings. The Nimzowitsch Larsen Attack family seems to be their playground, boasting solid win rates around 65-75% in bullet games with classical and modern variations alike. As for blitz, Sicilian Defense variations dominate, with a particular knack for the Old Sicilian and Open Accelerated Dragon variations, collecting wins with the finesse of a seasoned chess chef.
This player’s style? Aggressive, resilient, and with a hint of drama inspired by their 85.87% comeback rate after setbacks—because why give up when you can flip the board and surprise your opponent? Also notable is their low early resignation rate (just 1.58%), proving they fight until the very last pawn is sacrificed.
Recent Battles
