ArtOfDeception — The National Master of Chess Artistry
Meet ArtOfDeception, a chess virtuoso who earned the distinguished title of National Master, proving that when it comes to chess, smart moves and a bit of trickery go hand in hand. Known for both strategic mastery and a sly grin, ArtOfDeception embodies the true art of outwitting opponents on 64 squares.
A Career in Moves and Mastery
Since bursting onto the scene in 2013 with a blitz rating of around 1400, ArtOfDeception's journey has been a rollercoaster of brilliance. By 2021, the blitz rating soared impressively to a peak of 2569 — fast enough to make grandmasters raise an eyebrow. Bullet chess enthusiasts admire the crisp speed and precision, with a peak bullet rating crossing 2524, while rapid and daily games show that patience and finesse are never far away.
The Style and Strategy
ArtOfDeception’s style is a delightful paradox: early resignations happen more than half the time (57.56% of games), but when the battle drags on, expect performances lasting about 30 moves — win or lose. With a white win rate close to 57% and a somewhat cheeky psychological tilt factor of 23 (everyone has their off days, right?), this player mixes tactical awareness with just the right pinch of nerves.
Ever the trickster, their comeback rate of nearly 36% reveals a never-say-die spirit: losing a piece doesn't dampen their chances, as they still win more than half the time afterward.

- Outmaneuvering in live chess battles, finishing games with checkmate that baffle the opposition.
- Still clocking wins with clock pressure and sharp calculation — the player’s calculator might as well be on fire!
