Tino Lang: The Rapid Riser
Some players ease into online chess. Tino Lang (known on the board as TinoLang60) did not get that memo. Starting out in late 2024 in the 1700-1900 range, Tino tore through the rating ladder at a pace that made the ladder itself nervous, climbing past 2000 within weeks and eventually peaking above 2400 in his preferred time control of Rapid. That is not improvement, that is a rocket launch with a chessboard strapped to it.
