GOKUL.S. Jeev - The Relentless Chess Warrior

Nickname: capfischer

GOKUL.S. Jeev, known in the chessverse as capfischer, is a rapid chess enthusiast whose journey on the 64 squares can only be described as a rollercoaster of persistence, surprises, and tactical brilliance. Clocking over 4,680 rapid games, Gokul’s style is a beautiful blend of patience and aggression, proving their mettle with an impressive overall win rate just shy of 47.3% in rapid chess. But don’t let the numbers fool you — every inch gained on the rating ladder was fought with spirit and countless battles of wits.

Rating Evolution: The Climb from Rapid Rookie to Strong Contender

Starting the rapid ride around 1174 in 2020, GOKUL has steadily elevated their rating to a peak rapid rating of 1578 in early 2025. This progress hasn’t been a straight path — there have been dips, rallies, and some real nail-biting matches. Notably, the recent years show a significant jump in consistency and volume of games, hitting a record 1,318 rapid games by 2024, showcasing not just skill but also endurance.

Playing Style: The Patient Comeback Kid

Famous for the long game, the average moves per win stand at around 67, with losses dragging on even longer, averaging nearly 75 moves — talk about stamina! GOKUL prefers the grind, rarely resigning early (Early resignation rate: 0.97%), emphasizing deep endgame knowledge (playing endgames in over 73% of games). Their comeback rate is a staggering 78%, making them the nightmare opponent who bounces back stronger after setbacks — plus, when losing a piece, they still manage a 100% win rate. Somewhere in there is an iron will mixed with wizardry.

Strengths and Psychological Edge

Remarkably, GOKUL maintains a healthy tilt factor of 13 — a modest number that suggests they keep cool under pressure, even after some frustrating losses. Their win rate when playing with the white pieces is about 50%, comfortably edging out the black pieces at 45%. Tactical awareness is high, with very few one-sided losses (2.39%), meaning they rarely get steamrolled.

Blitz and Daily (yes, daily too!)

Beyond rapid, GOKUL has also ventured into blitz with respectable achievements, peaking at 1340 and amassing nearly 1400 games. Their one and only daily game recorded boasts a perfect win! Clearly, when GOKUL steps away from the rapid arena, they bring their A-game whether it’s lightning fast or leisurely paced – a true chess polymath.

Match History & Rivalries

GOKUL’s opponent list reads like a who’s-who of online competitors, with notable multiple matches against “uttamchanda,” “mrkibull,” and “ghafourtaufiq.” Interestingly, capfischer has a perfect winning track record against many recent opponents like "korosh_farjami" and “sri_ram_das,” but also a few nemeses who remain undefeated — hey, even legends have that one rival!

Fun Fact & Legacy

When not busy plotting strategy on the board, GOKUL probably chuckles about their “Top Secret” opening performance — because who wants to reveal their chess secrets anyway? With almost 3,000 rapid games played using this enigmatic approach, it’s clearly a formula that works. Plus, a longest winning streak of 11 games proves that when in the zone, GOKUL is truly unstoppable.
