Once upon the 64 squares, Atulya Shetty emerged as a relentless chess warrior, earning the prestigious title of International Master from FIDE. Not just any player, Atulya approaches the board armed with a strategic mind sharper than a knight's fork and a passion that fuels victories spanning bullet, blitz, rapid, and daily games.

Rising from a modest Daily rating of about 1398 in early 2012, Atulya's journey resembles a thrilling chess novel full of tactical punches and positional brilliance. By October 2021, they peaked impressively with a Daily rating of 2212, a testament to both perseverance and skill. The bullet rating soared even higher, touching an astonishing 2907 the same year, making Atulya a formidable force in hyper-speed chess as well.

Atulya’s playing style is a delightful mixture of patience and fireworks. Known for an 83.92% frequency of endgames and an exceptional 84.86% comeback rate, they seem to have a knack for turning tables when the chips are down. Expect a rollercoaster of moves averaging nearly 78 in wins, proving that giving up early isn't in their vocabulary (the early resignation rate is barely 0.68%). If you think you've got them mated, think again.

Their opening repertoire remains a well-guarded secret, but we do know Atulya dominates here too – boasting a staggering 93.49% win rate in "Top Secret" daily games with a near-perfect record of 316 wins out of 338 games.

On the battlefield of speed chess, Atulya’s Bullet and Blitz performances shine with thrilling highs, including a blitz peak of 2745 and countless wins marked by rapid tactical punches and incredible time management. Talk about playing well under time pressure!
