Biography of Amir Amir (aka Amir002497)
Meet Amir Amir, the Rapid chess warrior with a rollercoaster rating ride that would make even the most seasoned grandmasters raise an eyebrow. Currently boasting a peak Rapid rating of 834 as of June 2025, Amir has been grinding the 60-minute battlefield with dogged determination and a sprinkle of quirky brilliance.
Despite battling through almost a thousand Rapid games, Amir maintains a near-even win-loss record (456 wins vs 444 losses)—proof that sometimes it’s less about perfection and more about resilience (and maybe a little bit of stubbornness). With a knack for the Queen’s Pawn Opening Levitsky Attack, where he scored a respectable 56.25% win rate across 32 games, and a fondness for the Italian Game, Amir enjoys mixing classical strategies with unexpected twists.
A true strategical chameleon, Amir’s gameplay shows a healthy obsession with endgames, clocking in nearly 60% frequency — because who doesn’t like playing the waiting game? And don't be fooled by the losses; with a come-back rate of over 75%, Amir doesn’t give up easily, often clawing back from disadvantaged positions like a chess phoenix rising from its own blunders.
When not plotting victory on the board, Amir’s tactics favor long, intense battles — averaging about 56 moves per win and a grueling 69 moves per loss. It’s less a sprint and more a marathon, proving that Amir is not just here to play, but to test the endurance of opponent and self alike.
His best hour? A mysterious 12:00 PM slot where the chess gods whisper their secrets, and his tilt factor is low enough (11) to suggest that legendary composure is lurking just beneath the surface. He even carries a quirky habit of early resignations in about 3.6% of games—either a humble bow or a silent protest against bad opening luck.

Whether you meet Amir on the board or online, be prepared for a battle of wits mixed with a dash of unpredictability—and if you catch him at noon, maybe bring extra coffee. After all, this chess enthusiast is not just playing games; he’s living them, one move at a time.
