Акжан Отыншиев (Akzhan87)

Meet Акжан Отыншиев, also known in the chess world as Akzhan87 – a player whose journey on the 64 squares is as dynamic as his rating graph.

Chess Journey & Ratings

Акжан has been steadily climbing the ranks since 2021, with peak ratings reaching 747 in Rapid, 867 in Blitz, and an impressive 988 in Bullet as of 2025. His love for speed chess shines through his bullet and blitz stats, where the intensity is high and so are his win numbers. But don't be fooled by the rapid fluctuations early on—in true fighter style, Акжан rose from a humble first rated 100 in Rapid in 2021 to a respected 700+ rating in multiple formats.

Playing Style & Strengths

Акжан is a resilient tactician, showing an impressive 84.99% comeback rate, meaning when the chips are down, he often manages a turnaround. His average moves per win hover around 51, showing not just aggressive play but also patience, especially with a hefty 58.39% frequency of reaching endgames.

Early resignations? Rare—just about 5.16% of the time—because Акжан fights till the end. His white pieces bring him slightly more success (51.16% win rate) compared to black (47.77%). Not a bad stat for someone who clearly enjoys battling from both sides of the board!

Openings Favorite (or Foes Beware!)

From the classic King's Pawn Opening to the sneaky Philidor Defense, Акжан's repertoire is vast. In rapid games, he's had nearly 500 battles with the King's Pawn Opening, winning close to half of them. In blitz and bullet, his trusty weapons include the King's Pawn Opening Leonardis Variation and Philidor Defense, where his win rates hover comfortably above 50%.

Battle Stats & Records

Акжан’s chess career is a rollercoaster with over 12,000 games played across all formats, maintaining almost equal numbers of wins and losses, topped with draws sprinkled in for balance. His longest winning streak? A heart-pumping 30 games – that's some serious momentum!

His resilience sometimes shakes with a tilt factor at 13 (not too shabby for a passionate player), and his best brainpower seems to strike when the clock shows 2 AM. Night owl? Chess gladiator? You decide.

Recent Triumphs & Trials

Акжан’s latest victories include some pretty intense battles where he emerges victorious by resignation or checkmate, proving that he can outsmart opponents both strategically and tactically. One notable win saw Акжан masterfully dismantling a Caro-Kann Defense opponent within 23 moves, sealing the game by resignation after a whirlwind of tactical plays. However, even the strongest warriors face setbacks, as Akzhan87 recently succumbed to a Queens-Pawn Opening variation loss by time. Hey, even pros need to take breaks!

Fun Facts & Personality Highlights

When not plotting chess moves, Акжан might just be plotting his next unpredictable comeback. With a win rate that dips only slightly against higher-rated foes (24.86% wins against above-rated opponents, proving he’s always game for a tough challenge), this player is all about having fun while fighting on the board.

Fans would say Акжан is the embodiment of "Never give up!"—because whether winning or losing, he sticks around for the adventure.
