FIDE Master Tal Levitan (aka ArrestingPieces)

Meet Tal Levitan, a FIDE Master who dances with the chessboard like a grandmaster of puzzles and mayhem. Known online as ArrestingPieces, Tal’s blitz games are nothing short of a rollercoaster — zooming from a blazing peak rating of 2575 down to the depths of 1499, then rising again with a spirit as relentless as a knight’s fork.

Whether wielding the white or black pieces, Tal has a knack for turning tables, boasting a comeback rate of over 90% and an almost saintly 100% win record after losing a piece. Opponents beware: resigning early against Tal is about as effective as trying to stop a pawn from queening!

Tal’s style? A patient tactician, averaging over 80 moves per win, savoring the endgame 79% of the time — the true mark of a player who doesn’t just aim to win, but to make each victory a masterpiece.

ArrestingPieces shines brightest between 5 AM and 7 AM with a 100% win rate at 7 AM — clearly, either the early bird gets the chessworm or Tal simply plays better before coffee. Even at peak blitz performance, Tal keeps a tilt factor of just 6, proving that frustration never outmaneuvers this seasoned competitor.

With over 700 blitz games under the belt, and a playful win record of 239-213-56, Tal’s results are as unpredictable as a queen trapped in the corner — thrilling for fans, nerve-wracking for rivals. Challengers like shuvalov and bestbytestbro better watch out — Tal’s record against them is a perfect 100% win rate!

In short, Tal Levitan is the kind of chess player who turns every match into an epic saga, where patience, cunning, and a pinch of unpredictability reign supreme. Ready to lose to a comeback artist? Tal will be waiting at the board!
