Faik Aleskerov (Aleskeroff) - National Master Extraordinaire

Faik Aleskerov, known online as Aleskeroff, proudly holds the esteemed title of National Master. A player who embraces the thrilling chaos of chess, Faik has danced between the ranks, proving to be both a relentless attacker and a creative strategist. With a penchant for the "Top Secret" opening—because why reveal your secrets when you can keep opponents guessing?—Faik has achieved notable success especially in blitz chess, boasting an impressive 78.57% win rate in this fiery format.

His blitz peak rating soared to 2522 in May 2020, while his rapid and bullet peaks stand firm at a respectable 2315 and 2300, respectively. Faik’s marathon games tell tales of gritty endurance: with an average 58.8 moves per win, he clearly believes that patience is a virtue—and probably enjoys keeping opponents on the edge of their seats.

When not mercilessly harassing his foes on the chessboard, Faik may be found deliberately choosing the most mysterious lines, leading to unpredictable and entertaining battles. Did you know he once pulled off a spectacular sacrifice in the Scotch Gambit, leaving his opponent blinking in disbelief? Checkmate by resignation and even the occasional timeout loss are all part of Faik’s colorful career tapestry.

Psychologically resilient with a tilt factor of only 5, Faik’s real power shows after setbacks: an incredible 87.5% comeback rate proves that giving up is never an option. Most wins seem to come on Sundays and Fridays—the perfect days for chess and maybe a little extra weekend swagger. Night owl alert: 10 PM is when Faik’s tactical awareness hits its peak, so beware if you challenge him then!

Faik’s memorable victories often come against frequent opponents with stellar records like mannansh1909 and sophisticatedfork. While a few adversaries have figured out his style (and handed him losses), Aleskeroff relentlessly improves, proving that every loss is just another plot twist in his chess saga.

In summary, Faik is a national-level chess warrior, a secret-weapon enthusiast, and a formidable tactician who keeps the board as exciting as a rollercoaster ride.
