Mladen Gajic - FIDE Master Extraordinaire

Meet Mladen Gajic, a FIDE Master whose chess prowess dances between brilliance and bulldozer! Known to many by the username 2Coaches1Profile, Mladen has carved a niche in the chess world balancing dizzying bullet duels and thoughtful rapid tussles.

Rating & Style

Mladen’s peak bullet rating soared to 2768 in May 2025 — a number that could intimidate even the most confident speed demons. Blitz fans also admire his swift strikes, with a peak rating of 2631 achieved in mid-2024, and a solid rapid rating hovering just over 2300.

But numbers only tell part of the story. Known for an impressive 83.9% comeback rate, Mladen frequently turns the tables when the chips are down. Endgames are his playground, featuring in over 80% of his games, showing not just patience but surgical precision.

Chess Personality

A queen of resilience, Mladen isn’t one to fold easily. Though they keep tilt at a moderate 12%, their average game length reveals a fondness for long battles with about 77 moves on average before sealing a win. Noticeably, when playing White, Mladen wins about 53% of the time, but don't underestimate Black — nearly half the time, those black pieces snatch victory too.

Early resignation happens rarely (only 1.38%), so if you sit across them at the board, prepare for a dogfight! With a win rate above 64% against lower-rated players, Mladen ensures they capitalize on the advantage but truly shows their mettle against equally or higher-rated foes, holding their own with steady, consistent play.

Openings & Preferred Battles

If you were hoping to catch Mladen off guard, think again. Their secret weapon? An enigmatic and heavily played opening dubbed "Top Secret," boasting just under a 50% win rate in over 2800 bullet games. When not top-secret, they dabble in the Nimzowitsch Larsen Attack and the Trompowsky Attack, managing to squeeze commendable win rates and tactical surprises out of these choices.

Memorable Moments

Some recent battles highlight Mladen’s knack for timing and flair:

• A clean victory by resignation over opponent mauribe81, displaying a clinical dismantling of the French Defense Winawer Variation in early June 2025.
• Another swift mate delivered in a dazzling finish against 1stspinjitzumaster, proving that when Mladen’s on, even the clock is no match.
• And yes, even the great have their off days — a recent loss saw Mladen defeated by howtodrawapiggy, reminding us all that chess is the ultimate humbler!

The Legend Continues

With a current winning streak resting but a longest winning streak of 27 games in their back pocket, Mladen Gajic is the kind of player who’ll keep you on the edge of your seat — whether bullet, blitz, or rapid.

So next time you face 2Coaches1Profile online or over the board, remember: behind those lightning-fast moves and strategic gambits lurks a FIDE Master who’s part tactical genius, part stubborn fighter, and all heart.
