Meet the Wasp of Borneo
Md Omar Ak Hafizon Pg, known online as waspofborneo, is a FIDE Candidate Master who treats bullet chess like a full-contact sport. The username suggests a stinging creature from Borneo, and the data agrees: he has spent thousands of games buzzing around a clock, making opponents blunder, flag, or marvel at the number of obscure openings he can play at speed.
His favorite home is the one-minute pool. With over 6,000 bullet games in these statistics, he has earned every drop of the "Wasp" nickname.
The 60 Second Empire
Hafizon does not play Bullet so much as he relentlessly argues with it. The chart below shows his rating over time, a jagged, trending line that resembles a heartbeat after two espressos.
He has touched 2605 (2026-03-31), and along the way he has learned that a 31 game winning streak can be answered by a 13 game losing streak if you play enough chess. He wins around the same number as he loses, but he does so with gusto and almost never resigns. Only 1.2 percent of his games end with him resigning, which means he stays for the lessons, the comeback, and the occasional accidental stalemate.
An Opening Spellbook of Obscurity
If you are the kind of player who wants a "normal" opening, Hafizon is not your target. His repertoire is a love letter to the wild side of chess, and he has played opening variations that sound like spells, snacks, or old dinosaur names.
- As White, he routinely builds the King's Indian Attack, edges in a Nimzo-Larsen-style setup, and sometimes simply launches an Amar Gambit before the opponent is ready for a bouquet of bizarre kingside moves.
- As Black, he has logged enough games in the Sicilian Defense to write a private encyclopaedia of all its imaginative sidelines, especially when the game gets sharp and time is low.
He also enjoys setups that keep the opening label function on chess sites busy. If you see a long opening name followed by "Variation of the Gambit" and no clear reason, there is a good chance he has played it for the fun of it.
Rivals, Odd Hours, and Relentless Endgames
After thousands of games, a few familiar faces inevitably appear. His most loyal online dance partner has been <alph-lyla-w-lyla>; they have faced each other 61 times, and the tape is still not complete.
There is something important to know if you play him: the idea of "safe" does not guarantee anything. Data from his own battles shows that he wins 46% of the time after losing a piece, which is a polite warning that being up a knight against the Wasp is not the same as winning. He also reaches endgames often, with the endgame frequency near 83%, and each victory takes a delightfully long 83 moves. He apparently enjoys an entire 5,000 move chess in the park while the bullet clock is screaming.
The best time to meet him is 5 a.m. His best win rate lives there. Hidden in the data, that is the Wasp's most dangerous hour: from his home in Borneo, the internet glows, the coffee is hot, and another bullet game is already blinking.
