Bilal Raza: The Chess Adventurer

Meet BILAL-RAZA, a chess player whose journey is as much a rollercoaster as a grandmaster’s opening repertoire! With a rapid rating peaking at 398 in early 2025, Bilal has shown an extraordinary commitment to pushing pawns, knights, and maybe even his own limits. Although not storming the elite towers of chess yet, his zigzagging rapid rating journey—from a dramatic max of 398 down to 177—reveals a player who embraces every twist and turn on the 64 squares.

Statistics at a Glimpse

• Rapid: 214 wins, 222 losses, 73 draws across hundreds of battles.
• Daily Chess: A perfect 400 peak rating but only a handful of games; perhaps Bilal plays more by lightning than clock!
• Bullet: The speed chess realm has seen Bilal try his wings with a 100 rating, experience loss, and resolve to come back stronger.

Tactical & Strategic Style

Despite an early resignation rate of around 12%, Bilal loves the endgame — occurring in over 60% of his games — proving he’s a finisher who likes to see the finish line, even if it sometimes involves a comeback. Speaking of comebacks, a 75% success rate after falling behind shows that Bilal refuses to let a lost piece be the last chapter in his stories.

Opening Explorer Extraordinaire

From the classic King's Pawn Opening (Leonardis Variation) to the sharp edges of the Pirc Defense and the quirky Grob Opening, Bilal is not afraid to dance with variety. The Queen's Pawn Opening boasts a cool 50% win rate — his personal playground where creativity meets calculated risk.

Memorable Matches

Recently, Bilal secured a victory playing King's Pawn Opening (Leonardis Variation) against lolololololf, sealing the game with a classic game-abandoned checkmate. Yet, like all knights errant, not every battle ends in glory. Losses to opponents such as abdulnoor1336 and diletta00 remind us that even a resilient warrior must sometimes bow—but always with honor.

Chess & Humor

Bilal's chess life might feel like a sitcom at times: streaks worth writing novels about (7 wins in a row!) and occasional “ouch” moments with 9 consecutive losses. But his tilt factor holds steady at 9%, meaning he keeps calm, collected, and ready to storm the board anew—probably fueled by caffeine and the thrill of the next game!

When to Catch BILAL-RAZA

His best time to play? 8 AM sharp—likely before the coffee kicks in fully, or maybe that's when his brain is freshest to foresee opponent blunders. Interestingly, Bilal has some mysteriously perfect win rates at unusual hours—100% at 8 AM and 8 PM (coincidence? We think not).

Final Thoughts

Whether you're a fellow chess enthusiast or just love rooting for the underdog, Bilal Raza’s story is a captivating one. It’s a tale of battles won and lost, openings experimented, and moments of brilliance sprinkled between strategic stumbles. A player who may not be a grandmaster (yet), but definitely a grand part of the chess community!

Ready for your next match? Just beware: Bilal might throw a Van t Kruijs or Mieses Opening surprise that will leave you scratching your head... or laughing — probably both.
