Teodor Anton - International Master Extraordinaire
Known in the chess world as TudorAnton, Teodor is an International Master officially titled by FIDE—a badge earned through blood, sweat, and probably a few coffee-fueled nights poring over opening theory. Like a grandmaster-in-training with a flair, Teodor commands the board with a sharp blitz and bullet style, proving that speed and precision can truly coexist.
Career Highlights
Teodor’s blitz rating once soared above 2600, peaking at an impressive 2637. This isn’t just good; it’s “blink and you’ll miss it”-good! His bullet rating didn’t lag behind either, topping out at a blistering 2426. Rapid and daily formats have their place too, with Teodor showcasing solid skill and the patience of a saint—albeit rarely opting for slow games.
Playing Style & Personality
With an average winning streak that could intimidate anyone (a hefty 14 wins in a row once!), Teodor’s tactical awareness shines bright—boasting an 88% comeback rate. The man can turn a losing position into a win so often it’s almost like magic... or just relentless tenacity. Even when things get rough, his tilt factor hovers at a modest 11 out of 100, meaning he keeps his cool better than most on a bad day.
Playing mostly with the White pieces gives him a slight edge with a white win rate of 53.24%, proving Teodor likes to grab the initiative early and doesn’t shy away from complex battles. His games tend to be long affairs, averaging over 77 moves per win, showing that he’s not just a flashy speedster but a true strategist who loves the endgame dance.

One recent masterpiece saw TudorAnton executing a flawless checkmate in less than 30 moves, demonstrating deep knowledge of the Trompowsky Attack. If you blinked, you missed the queen sacrifices, kingside assaults, and the final “checkmate” mic drop.
