Suresh Harsh - The International Master Known as Chessmissile07
Meet Suresh Harsh, an International Master (IM) soaring through the ranks with a chessboard precision that could give a missile guidance system a run for its money—hence the fitting nickname, Chessmissile07.
Career & Achievements
Awarded the prestigious title of International Master by FIDE, Suresh is a serious force to reckon with in the blitz and bullet arenas. With a peak blitz rating soaring above 3000 (3021 in early 2024!) and a bullet rating climbing near the 2900 mark, few can keep up with their lightning-fast tactics and relentless endgame prowess.
Playing Style & Humor
Suresh is not only a master of the pieces but a connoisseur of the long game, averaging over 82 moves per win in blitz, suggesting patience that rivals a saint waiting in traffic. Their approach? Endgames are practically their second home, with an 87.42% frequency in their games—probably why opponents call them, "The Endgame Whisperer." Critics speculate they’ve secretly installed a treadmill under their chair for all those extra moves!
Stats & Records
- Blitz record: 8,289 wins to 7,609 losses with 1,857 draws.
- Bullet battles: Battles raged with over 1,700 wins and just over 1,300 losses.
- Rapid games: Less frequent but still sharp, boasting nearly twice as many wins as losses.
- Longest Winning Streak: An astounding 23 games!
Opening Tricks
While many openings have tried to faze Suresh, they've shown love (and domination) for the secretive and top-secret variations, making opponents feel like they’re playing chess with a secret agent. Nimzowitsch Larsen Attack and Owens Defense also make appearances, where clever trapdoors are always set.
Recent Battles
In a recent blitz clash on May 27, 2025, Suresh, playing black under the moniker Chessmissile07, elegantly won a game via resignation against GothamChess after a carefully choreographed defense in the Modern Defense variation — proving yet again that even against the sharpest white pieces, Suresh's missile-like strikes find their target.
Fun Facts
- Tilt factor is kept impressively low at only 22%, proving that Suresh manages to stay cool even when the pieces feel hot.
- Favorite hours to play? Early mornings at 3:00AM — the perfect time to launch sneak attacks while the world sleeps.
- Win rate is a healthy balance across all colors, but white edges out slightly at 50%.
Whether you're an aspiring grandmaster or just a casual fan of the 64 squares, watching Suresh Harsh in action is a thrilling journey full of strategic surprises, endgame wizardry, and enough chess fireworks to light up an evening. Just be sure to watch out — their missiles hit fast and true!
Hi Suresh Harsh!
Here is a personalized review of your recent blitz performance together with an action-oriented improvement plan.
Quick Snapshot
- Current form: beating 2700+ opposition (e.g. Levy Rozman) but also dropping several games on the clock.
- Favourite structures: 1…g6 / …b6 setups and the Nimzowitsch–Larsen Attack with 1 b3.
- Peak blitz rating: 3021 (2024-01-03).
What You Are Doing Well
- Dynamic piece play. In the win vs. GothamChess, …
h6–g5and the exchange sacrifice …Rxd1+showed excellent feel for initiative. - Flexible openings. Alternating between Modern, Owen’s and English setups keeps opponents guessing.
- End-game resourcefulness. The rook-and-pawn grind against
burbur555demonstrated good technique converting extra passed pawns.
Main Growth Areas
- Clock Management – recurrent Zeitnot.
• Three of the last five losses were “lost on time” in equal or better positions.
• Typical pattern: comfortable middlegame > critical moment > 10-second scramble > blunder or flag. - Central tension handling.
• In the loss toLiemLeyou played …c6then alloweddxc5 Nb5without coordination, giving White control of d6/f7. Similar drift appeared in theD31Janowski game. - Premature pawn thrusts.
• The pawn storm …h6–h5vs.Dr_Tygerweakened dark squares and invited tactics (⚠︎Nxg5 Qxg5+). Calculate forcing replies before committing wing pawns.
Targeted Training Plan (4 weeks)
| Topic | Weekly Focus | Measurement |
|---|---|---|
| Clock discipline | Bulletproof “move every 5 s until 1:30 left”, then think. | Average time per move < 7 s in first 20 moves. |
| Central pawn breaks | Drill positions with e4/e5, d4/d5 tension (Chessable or CT-Art). | 90% score in 50 puzzles. |
| Dark-square strategy | Review games where you fianchettoed and got attacked; annotate weaknesses. | Concede ≤2 minor-piece sacrifices on g6/g7 in next 30 games. |
| Practical endgames | Play 20 rook-and-pawn endings vs. engine “Endgame” level. | Convert 70% of R+2 v R+1. |
Opening Tweaks
- As Black vs. 1 Nf3/1 c4: add a classical
…d5option to balance hyper-modern systems. Surprise value will remain but you’ll get more centre. - As White: your 1 b3 scores well, yet opponents are preparing. Sprinkle in 1 d4 with quick
Bf4(London-style) to keep repertoire fresh. - Memorisation tip: build micro-files of 15 critical positions instead of full theory trees.

Next Steps
- Play a 20-game streak implementing the 5-second rule; annotate only time-trouble phases.
- Once per week, select one loss and perform a blunder chain analysis: trace the first inaccuracy that made the final mistake possible.
- After 4 weeks, compare stats and request a follow-up review.
Stay disciplined and enjoy the process. With small tweaks you are well on course to push beyond 2900 blitz!
Good luck, and see you at the board!
