Play Style & Stats
Michal favors the blitz arena with a hefty experience—over 19,700 blitz games showing a near 50% win rate, battling out countless “Top Secret” openings that keep opponents guessing (and often groaning). The Caro-Kann Defense and various English Opening variations are among the trusty weapons of choice—provoking tactical skirmishes and endgame thrillers alike.
Not afraid to pull the trigger early, Michal’s early resignation rate is over 60%, proving sometimes it’s smarter to cut losses and prepare for the next fight. And with an average 27 moves per win, it’s clear this player balances calculated patience with bold strikes.
Psychological Side
Despite the fierce tactical play, Michal’s tilt factor remains impressively low at 10—calm under pressure except around 2 AM, known as the Best Time of Day to Play (because who doesn’t love an early-morning masterpiece?). Winning rates tend to be slightly less against higher-rated opponents, but hey, every grandmaster was once a challenger waiting to surprise.
