Lee Qing Aun (aunqa) - FIDE Master Extraordinaire
Meet Lee Qing Aun, a chess virtuoso known in the 64-square battlefield as aunqa. Bestowed with the prestigious title of FIDE Master, Lee Qing Aun has turned the noble art of chess into a thrilling game of strategy, resilience, and of course, a sprinkle of cunning mischief.
Career Highlights & Playing Style
Starting modestly in 2014 with blitz ratings hovering around the 1200s, Lee’s rapid ascent through the ranks is nothing short of poetic chess drama. From blitz battles that saw spirited comebacks and tight endgames, to rapid games that tested every tactical nerve, this player’s journey is a rollercoaster of checkmates and near escapes.
With a peak blitz rating hitting the magical 2700 in October 2023, Lee has evidently cracked the code to blitz mastery — a realm where milliseconds decide fate, and resignations are the whisper of defeat. While their endgame endurance is exceptional, playing an average of 70+ moves before sealing a win, you can bet Lee does not roll over without a fight.
Not Just Statistics — A Personality
Legends say that Lee’s best time to conquer the board is at the somewhat suspiciously early hour of 3 AM, when most mortals are dreaming, Lee is busy mathematically demolishing opponents (perhaps fueled by a healthy dose of midnight snacks). Their psychological resilience boasts a comeback rate of 84.5%, proving that throwing in the towel is just not in their vocabulary — except maybe in time pressure moments or a particularly sneaky trap.
Noteworthy Opponents & Rivalries
Lee has tangled with all kinds of challengers — from "diggyholediggy" to "chess_brainstorm01" — boasting win rates against some rivals as high as 100%. However, no warrior’s path is free of hurdles, and Lee holds a respectable 47.62% win record against the crafty "diggyholediggy," suggesting some thrilling encounters sprinkled with tension and tactical fireworks.
Recent Triumphs & Battles
In their most recent memory bank of battles, Lee clinched a victorious win against "earlgrayattack" in a Live Chess match featuring the Sicilian Defense, Open Dragon, Levenfish Variation — a name as fiery as the battle itself. With precise maneuvers and a resignation victory from their opponent, Lee proved that patience and strategy pay off.
Fun Fact
Despite their impressive skills and lofty ratings, Lee still maintains a 7% early resignation rate — because who hasn’t had that moment of "Oops, I missed that blunder" and gracefully bowed out, only to come back stronger and smarter next game?
To sum up — Lee Qing Aun is the embodiment of chess passion: profound knowledge, tactical genius, tough psychological play, and a dash of midnight mystery. It’s impossible not to root for this formidable player who makes every game a captivating story.
Check out their games, and you’ll see what it means to dance with the devil on a chessboard!
Hi Lee Qing Aun!
Great job on your recent 28-move win against earlgrayattack. For quick reference you can replay it here:
What you are doing well
- Dynamic openings: Sharp Sicilians and French-type gambits put early pressure on your opponents.
- Initiative & piece activity: You often seize files/diagonals quickly (e.g. the Ra1–a3–a7 manoeuvre above).
- Tactical vision: Many victories stem from spotting concrete shots and combinations.
- Fighting spirit: Time-wins vs higher-rated rivals show resilience and a never-give-up attitude.
Top three improvement priorities
- King safety in sharp openings
Losses on 29 Apr and 18 Apr began with early pawn storms while your king sat in the centre. Before pushing a wing pawn, ask: “What checks/captures does my opponent gain immediately?” Aim to complete development (or have a forced tactical justification) first. - Time management
Four of the last six defeats ended with <10 s on your clock. Use a 10-move time map:
• ≥75 % time left after move 10
• ≥50 % after move 20
• ≥25 % entering any endgame.
Train this in 5 + 5 or 10 + 0 sparring games. shows that performance often dips late at night—consider scheduling key games earlier. - Endgame conversion
The drawn rook ending vs elrekik was lost on the clock. Drill Lucena, Philidor and side-check techniques; rehearse with engines set to 2000-2200 to build speed and confidence.
Opening repertoire suggestions
- With White: Your f-pawn “Jobava” systems are strong but predictable. Add one solid option (e.g. Catalan or 6.Be2 vs the Dragon) to diversify.
- With Black vs 1.d4: The early …e6/…c5 setups sometimes leave pieces awkward (see loss vs Liverpool_444). Study the Nimzo-Indian or QGD to achieve smoother development.
