Mirosław Lewicki (Airquake) - International Master

Meet Mirosław Lewicki, better known in the chess world as Airquake, a formidable International Master with a knack for shaking the chessboard with tactical brilliance and strategic depth. Holding the title of International Master accredited by FIDE, Mirosław has made a name playing fast-paced variants, especially bullet and blitz, where reflexes meet razor-sharp mind games.

Rating Rollercoaster & Peak Performance

Airquake’s chess rating resembles a thrilling rollercoaster at an amusement park designed by a grandmaster. With a peak bullet rating soaring to an eye-watering 2924 in August 2024 and a blitz peak of 2889 in April 2025, Mirosław has consistently hovered in the legendary rocket league of chess prodigies online.

Fast and Fearless: Bullet & Blitz Mastery

With tens of thousands of games under their belt, Mirosław has battled fiercely in bullet chess — a game so fast that it would make even lightning nervous. In bullet alone, their win rate proudly edges above 54% in their top secret opening repertoire, and with over 9,600 games played in that category across the years, the resilience is nothing short of extraordinary.

In the blitz arena, where quick thinking and shrewd tactics reign supreme, Airquake maintains an impressive nearly 49.25% win ratio across more than 4,500 games. Blitz opponents beware — this IM isn't just fast; they are fast and terrifyingly accurate.

Openings? More Like Opening Acts of a Chess Circus

Mirosław doesn’t just stick to the classic openings—they bring a little flare and surprise to the board! From crushing performances in the Sicilian Defense Open Variation with an 82% win rate, to the unpredictable Reti Opening Sicilian Invitation boasting over 64% success, there’s no shortage of style here. The Top Secret opening, played a whopping 9,687 times, accounts for a solid 54% win rate, proving that those secret moves are as mysterious as a spy thriller.

The Streaks and The Spirit

Airquake's longest winning streak stretches a stunning 18 games—eighteen consecutive moments when opponents could only watch in disbelief. Of course, even the best stumble—Mirosław's longest losing streak is a painful 14 games, reminding us all that even an International Master can face the "chess gods’" wrath... but they always bounce back.

Psychological Edge

Mirosław brings more than just moves to the board—they wield psychological warfare with a “Tilt Factor” of 14, bravely battling anger and frustration that often plague rapid-fire chess. And if things get tough after losing a piece, no worries — they have a comeback rate north of 85%, turning the tables with a magician's flair.

Game Highlights

Just recently, Airquake clinched a thrilling victory against MateoReyes featuring a classic Queen’s Gambit Declined Harrwitz Fianchetto Defense, ending the game with a resignation from their opponent — proof that sometimes the best move is knowing when to fold. Another spectacular win came with a sharp Sicilian Defense Nyezhmetdinov Rossolimo Attack, where lightning-fast tactics met strategic dominance.

In Summary

Mirosław Lewicki, playing as Airquake, is a chess force that blends rapid-fire intuition and master-level precision. Whether blitzing bullet games or battling in blitz contests with cool nerves and a keen intellect, this International Master is a true chess phenomenon—always ready to quake the board with their next brilliant move. Keep an eye on Airquake; the chess world is their storm to command!

Overview of your bullet play

In your bullet games you tend to develop quickly and prioritize active piece play. You aim to keep king safety intact while seeking tactical chances to seize the initiative. When the clock tightens you still try to stay aggressive, but you can improve by tightening decision-making and maintaining a clear plan as the position evolves.

What you are doing well

  • You often set up a solid fianchetto or other flexible structures that give you long-term strategic options and a stable base for piece activity.
  • You push for activity and poses problems for your opponent when you have the initiative, creating practical chances even in fast time controls.
  • You generate pressure and convert some of it into tangible threats when your opponent hesitates under time pressure.

Key improvement areas

  • Clock management in bullet: try to distribute thinking time more evenly and practice quickly identifying forcing moves at the start of a position to avoid sudden time losses.
  • Calculation discipline: focus on 2–3 critical forcing lines per position and verify them rapidly to reduce risky or speculative moves.
  • Endgame technique: develop a simple plan for converting advantages in rook or pawn endgames, such as centralizing the king, activating rooks, and pushing connected passed pawns when safe.
  • Opening consistency: consider locking in two solid White openings (for example your fianchetto system and a secondary reliable line) and one dependable Black response to minimize on-the-fly decisions under time pressure.

Opening choices and repertoire

Your results suggest you handle flexible, dynamic lines reasonably well, especially with the fianchetto setup as White and adaptable responses as Black. To reduce decision fatigue in bullet, try consolidating two solid White openings and one reliable Black reply against common White setups. If you enjoy tactical ideas, you can continue exploring sharp options, but pair them with dependable, quieter lines as backups.

Practical drills and training plan

  • Daily tactical puzzles focused on patterns that appear in your bullet games (forks, discovered attacks, back-rank themes).
  • Bullet time practice: play a set of very short games (for example 1+0 or 1+1) to build a steadier pace, then review time usage afterwards.
  • Post-game brief: after each game, note one turning point and one improvement to carry into the next game.
  • Endgame focus: practice basic rook endgames and king activity with simple pawn structures to improve conversion.

Next steps

  • Choose two main White openings (your fianchetto setup and a solid secondary line) and drill them for the next couple of weeks.
  • Establish a quick post-game recap habit to capture actionable improvements from every game.
  • Work on recognizing forcing lines and avoiding blunders in the early middlegame through short, targeted checks before moving.

Review suggestion

If you want, you can attach a brief move-by-move summary of one recent game to analyze key moments. This can be a simple note focusing on turning points and improvements to carry into the next game.
