Arpita Mukherjee - Woman International Master (WIM)

Meet Arpita Mukherjee, a chess dynamo who has skillfully earned the prestigious title of Woman International Master from FIDE. If chess were an Olympic sport, Arpita’s blitz skills would have her on the podium with a gold medal gleaming brightly.

Rating Highlights & Playstyle

Arpita's blitz rating has danced its way from a respectable 2215 in 2019 to an impressive peak of 2663 in early 2024, proving she can not only keep up but outpace her competition in lightning-fast situations. This isn't just speed; it's sharp chess wrapped in quick timing! Bullet ratings tell a similar tale — starting around 1797 in 2019 and reaching an electrifying 2491 in 2024.

With an average of nearly 75 moves per win in her games, Arpita is in for the long haul when aiming for victory—patience and precision define her style. She enjoys the nail-biting tension of endgames, diving into them with a frequency of 84%. Her early resignation rate is cheery (low-ish at 0.6%), suggesting an impressive fighting spirit—even if the knight is missing in action.

Psychology & Flair

Even the best have off days, but Arpita’s tilt factor is a modest 10, indicating she keeps calm and carries on. Her comeback skills are almost superhero-level—with a 91% rate of bouncing back, and an almost perfect 99.84% chance of winning after losing a piece. Chess dreamers beware: once she’s down material, quitting is simply not in her playbook.

Head-to-Head & Memorable Moments

She’s danced the dance with many challengers, counting players like sakshi_chess1 and timoff11 among her most frequent opponents. And if you ask her recent rivals—names like god-ant and seesheep123—they’ve witnessed win rates for Arpita ranging from rock-solid to outright perfect.

Fun Fact

Whether it's 2 AM or noon, Arpita seems to have a chess clock built into her internal rhythm, boasting win rates above 50% on nearly every day of the week and nearly every hour—except for the mysterious "23rd hour" (11 PM), when she apparently moonlights as a reigning chess queen, or maybe just takes a break.

In summary, Arpita Mukherjee is not just a player but a strategist with the heart of a warrior, a sharp mind, and the lightning pace to back it all up. Watch out on the board—there’s a WIM with a winning streak and a chessboard sense for the ages!

Feedback for Arpita Mukherjee

Arpita, you've demonstrated strong tactical awareness and attacking skills in your recent games, especially evident in your ability to create threats and convert advantageous positions. Your use of aggressive pawn pushes (like h4/h5 and f3/f4 pawn storms) shows good initiative in challenging your opponents' setups.

Strengths:

  • Opening Preparation: You choose dynamic openings such as the Pirc Defense and various Sicilian lines, allowing you to steer the game into complex, unbalanced positions where you can capitalize on your attacking skills.
  • Calculating Combinations: You've displayed the ability to spot tactical shots that lead to material or positional gains, including some clean checkmates and winning sequences.
  • King Safety: Your consistent castling and timely piece development protect your king well and facilitate smooth attacking plans.

Areas for Improvement:

  • Midgame Planning: While your tactics are strong, working on formulating longer-term plans during the middlegame will enhance your ability to convert slight advantages more consistently. Consider reviewing planning concepts and typical pawn breaks in your chosen openings.
  • Endgame Technique: Some of your losses show room to sharpen endgame knowledge and precision under time pressure, especially in simplified positions. Focus on typical endgame patterns and practical technique.
  • Time Management: You occasionally face tight time situations impacting your precision. Practice maintaining a steady pace and using your clock effectively to avoid rushed moves in critical moments.

Next steps:

  • Analyze your recent wins and losses deeply to identify recurring tactical motifs and mistakes.
  • Build out a training routine that includes tactical puzzles, endgame studies, and opening theory refreshers.
  • Try to annotate your games with your thoughts during critical moments to better understand your decision-making patterns.

Keep up the great work! With focused practice on planning and endgames, your overall strength will continue to rise.
