Konstantin Dolgitser - FIDE Master and Chess Enthusiast
Konstantin Dolgitser, known in the chess circles and online realms as BlackSwan13, is no ordinary player. Awarded the prestigious title of FIDE Master, Konstantin’s chess journey is marked by a rollercoaster of blitz battles, rapid duels, and daily training skirmishes. With a Blitz peak rating soaring close to 2300, he’s as comfortable in rapid-fire tactical melees as he is in marathon strategic endgames.
What sets Konstantin apart? Apart from an enviable longest winning streak of 37 games, he boasts a near-perfect comeback rate of 84.79% — if he loses a piece, expect a counterattack with 100% win rate afterwards! It’s clear resignation is for the faint of heart, given his early resignation rate sits snugly at just 0.1%, proving he fights til the last pawn.
His playing style embraces sophisticated endgames, appearing in over 78% of his matches, and he averages an epic 70 moves per win, showing both patience and precision. White or Black, Konstantin puts the pressure on, winning about 67% with the white pieces and over 61% when wielding the dark.
Konstantin’s psychological resilience is noteworthy with a tilt factor of just 6, meaning frustration rarely clouds his judgment. Does this mean he’s a robot? No, but his 14.37% better performance in rated games compared to casual ones hints that he loves the spotlight and edge of competition.
When not outsmarting opponents known by quirky handles like donutsforfree or starwarssaga (whom he beats 80% of the time, sorry star wars fans), he’s busy building opening secrets and sharpening his tactical vision. His “Top Secret” openings have netted him a whopping 56% win rate in blitz and an even more impressive 79% in rapid games.
Fun fact: Konstantin’s best hours for victory seem to fall between 19:00 to 21:00, when his win rate spikes to nearly 70%. Maybe that’s when the BlackSwan13 truly takes flight?
Whether blitzing through rapid-fire matches or enduring intense battles that stretch for nearly 90 moves, Konstantin Dolgitser is a force to reckon with on the chessboard, blending tactical brilliance with endurance and a touch of mystery.
