Meet Egor Bogdanov, a chess virtuoso whose bullet rating has zoomed as high as an impressive 2654 in 2018—definitely not your average weekend warrior. With over 270 bullet games under his belt that year, Egor’s lightning-fast moves and tactical prowess have powered him to a near 50% win rate against a galaxy of opponents.

In blitz chess, Egor shines just as brightly, boasting a solid 70% win rate over 64 games. His secret weapon? A mysterious "Top Secret" opening repertoire that keeps his rivals guessing (and occasionally scratching their heads).

His longest winning streak (a staggering 23 games) could rival some grandmaster marathons, yet Egor still manages to stay humble—with a current winning streak of 2 games, showing he’s always ready to bounce back.
