Amir Mallahi - International Master Extraordinaire

Meet Amir Mallahi, a chess maestro who proudly holds the title of International Master bestowed by FIDE. Amir’s chess journey is nothing short of a rollercoaster ride—with thrilling peaks and occasional plummets—mirroring the unpredictability of a blitz game itself.

With a peak blitz rating soaring to an impressive 2257 in early 2015, Amir has dazzled opponents with a near 50% win rate across an astounding 1,209 blitz games. Whether blitzing out a clever Nimzowitsch-Larsen Attack or strategically wielding the Alapin Sicilian, Amir’s opening repertoire keeps foes guessing and pawns fleeing.

Amir’s record boasts some jaw-dropping stats: a longest winning streak of 12 games, showing resilience and form that any grandmaster would envy—and yet, a humbling longest losing streak of 8 games to keep the humility intact. After all, what's chess without a sprinkle of drama?

Known for a chess endgame frequency of nearly 78%, Amir loves the subtle dance of fewer pieces, proving that patience and precision are just as deadly as any early king hunt. The comeback rate? An outstanding 84.39%—because Amir never gives up, even when the odds look grim.

When it comes to time zones, don’t bother trying to challenge Amir at midnight—3 AM is the magical hour when brilliance peaks, and pieces suddenly align by sheer force of will.

Opponents beware: Amir’s win rates against many players approach perfection—often 100% —though a few crafty rivals keep the matches spicy. Always the tactician, Amir’s games often end by resignation or the finely executed checkmate, much like a suspenseful thriller reaching its dramatic climax.

Outside of rating lists and statistics, Amir is a reminder that chess isn't just a game of pieces on a board, but a grand adventure filled with strategic gambits, psychological warfare, and, occasionally, some well-earned smirks after that sneaky fork.

In chess, as in life, Amir Mallahi plays with passion, precision, and just the right amount of flair.
