Nenad Tomasev - The Blitz Maestro
Meet Nenad Tomasev, known online as the_cheradenine, a chess player whose rating graph could make even the most seasoned grandmasters scratch their heads. Starting his recorded journey around 2009 with a modest blitz rating of 1800, Nenad quickly escalated to a blitz peak of 2146 in late 2014 — a level that marks the territory of serious competition mixed with a sprinkle of lightning-fast tactics.
If rapid fire battles on the 64 squares were a sport, Nenad would be a shoo-in for the gold. His blitz record boasts over 14,269 wins out of more than 24,000 blitz games, sporting a winning percentage of over 57%. And his bullet games? Well, with a peak bullet rating nearing 2300 and more wins than losses, Nenad clearly doesn’t shy away from fast and furious gameplay.
Not just a speed demon, Nenad plays with a tactical awareness that’s hard to beat: a comeback rate of more than 81%, suggesting he's the kind of opponent who stays calm under pressure—unless he’s running low on coffee. His endgame frequency of over 70% tells us he's a finisher too — a player who thrives in the final stages, where precision polishes off the opposition.
Despite having a tilt factor of 14 (chess jargon for those less zen moments), Nenad’s preference for the sweet spot of 2 PM playtime shows he’s got a schedule sharper than his bishops. Under his watch, opponents endeavour to keep up, but with a longest winning streak of 35 games, Nenad can steamroll through anyone’s defenses like a grandmaster blender.
Playing Style and Psychological Edge
- Wins more often with the white pieces at 55.87%, and holds solid with black at 53.72%
- Average moves per win hover around 68, proving patience and strategy walk hand-in-hand.
- Regularly outlasts opponents, resigning early only 1.38% of the time (because quitting is for amateurs!)
- Loves the thrill of the endgame, where every pawn and king move counts.
Recent Warrior Moves
Nenad's recent games tell of a fierce competitor: he won twice by causing the opponent to wave the white flag (resignation) and one by delivering a precise checkmate. His openings are reliable, often employing less-traditional lines with a wink, keeping enemies guessing. And if you want to challenge him, make sure to be at your best before 2 PM — that's when he’s most merciless!
Be careful in blitz; Nenad Tomasev is not just fast, he's a tactical whirlwind wrapped in an enigma, with a splash of humor and a killer queen!
