Rijad Burovic - International Master

Meet Rijad Burovic, also known under the enigmatic pseudonym Burovic00, an International Master who’s been quietly stalking the 64 squares like a chess ninja. With a rapid rating stubbornly holding at 2430 in 2023 and 2024, Rijad doesn’t just play chess—they orchestrate mini masterpieces every time the clock ticks.

Playing Style & Strength

Known for an astonishing zero tolerance towards early resignations, Rijad battles through the endgame in over 87% of his matches — patience personified, or maybe just too stubborn to quit. Games tend to average around 80 moves, ensuring plenty of moments where fans might need a snack or two.

He boasts an impressively high comeback rate of 91%, and somehow achieves a perfect 100% win rate after losing a piece — clearly, under pressure is where the magic happens. Opponents beware: giving Rijad even a hint of advantage only fuels his relentless tactical storm.

Format Highlights

  • Rapid: An undefeated streak of 7 wins to 0 losses (with 4 draws), showcasing strategic mastery over slower time controls.
  • Blitz: A punchy player with peaks above 2600 and a solid 52.6% win rate.
  • Bullet: The bullet king with a stunning max rating of 2822, sprinting through 94 games with 53 wins and a fiery 56.4% win rate.

Fun Facts & Rivalries

Rijad’s favorite opening remains a "Top Secret" weapon, which has netted him a formidable ~63% win rate in Rapid and over 50% in faster formats — some say it's less a strategy and more a chess Houdini act.

His longest winning streak clocks in at six games straight, proving he’s as consistent as your coffee addiction. However, his “current winning streak” is a humble zero — proof that even superheroes have their off days.

Among his many opponents, the battles against valentindragnev stand out, where Rijad fights tooth and nail with around 44% success, and his perfect records against players like windowsenthusiast (100%) might have them nervously double-checking their openings.

Personality By the Numbers

Rijad's tilt factor is a modest 4, meaning he mostly keeps his cool, though occasionally the chess gods test him. He shines brightest during evening hours and on Sundays—a perfect time to challenge him if you dare.

From calculating intricate endgames to sprinting through lightning-fast bullet duels, Rijad Burovic is a force on every front—a player who combines technique, endurance, and just a pinch of chess mischief.

Watch out on the board. Burovic00 is coming for your king.
