Vishwa Shah (aka Aanna12)

Title: Woman FIDE Master

Vishwa Shah, affectionately known online as Aanna12, is a formidable force in the blitz chess world, wielding her strategist’s wand with a peak blitz rating of 2358 achieved in December 2023. She plays with the precision of a chess engine and the flair of a grandmaster who’s just had one too many cups of coffee.

Career Highlights & Playing Style

Starting from a blitz rating in the high 1800s only a couple of years ago, Vishwa relentlessly climbed the ranks, reaching over 2300 in blitz by 2024. While her rapid rating hasn’t quite scaled those dizzy heights, a peak of 2187 still puts her comfortably in the upper echelons. She embraces the chaos of blitz chess, averaging nearly 68 moves per win—because who said speed chess has to be short?

Endgames are her playground, with an endgame frequency of 72.74%, showing a penchant for grinding down opponents in the late stages. Early resignations are rare for her (just 1.11%), proving that she fights tooth and nail until the final checkmate or a well-earned timeout.

Tactical Awareness

Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, Vishwa boasts an impressive comeback rate of 83%. Losing a piece? No sweat—she wins nearly 42% of those fights back, showing resilience most players only dream of. Her tilt factor is a modest 11, assuring fans that she rarely lets frustration get the better of her - though we’re sure the occasional grimace does slip through!

Quirky Stats and Rivalries

• Longest winning streak: 10 games in a row – clearly, once she's in the zone, she’s unstoppable!
• Longest losing streak: 11 games – even the best face down days. Don’t worry Vishwa, it happens to all of us.
• Favorite time to play (or at least when she’s at her peak): 7:00 AM – the early bird gets the knight, apparently.

Opponents & Records

Vishwa has a mixed bag of records against usual foes: with a stellar 100% win rate against many, but a few rivals like aleksander555 have managed to keep her at bay, winning 60% of their fights. She seems to fare best against opponents she faces less frequently, perhaps because she enjoys a little unpredictability in her battles.

Recent Battles

On January 2nd, 2025, Vishwa clinched a brilliant victory against logos62 via resignation after a tense battle featuring Alekhine's Defense. Not one to shy away from drama, her playstyle is a compelling mix of tactical sharpness and long-term strategic maneuvering. However, even champions have their off days — in May 2025 she experienced a tough loss to aleksander555, yet showed grace under fire and the maddening patience of a seasoned player.

In Conclusion

Whether she's outfoxing opponents at the speed of blitz or navigating complex endgames with surgical precision, Vishwa Shah lights up the chessboard with a style that's uniquely hers. She’s proof that chess is not just a game of intellect, but also of guts, grin, and a little bit of glitter. Watch this space – the queen is always on the move!
