Jonathan Corbblah: The Blitz and Bullet Virtuoso
Jonathan Corbblah, or as his foes nervously whisper in the shadows of the chessboard, "Corbblah," is no ordinary chess player. With an impressive journey starting from a modest 1329 blitz rating in 2011, Jonathan swiftly catapulted himself up the ranks to achieve a blistering blitz peak of 2635 in 2023. His growth can be likened to a rook storming across the 8th rank — unstoppable and often unexpected.
But don't let his swift hands fool you! Jonathan's bullet chess exploits are legendary. Peaking at a scorching 2760 rating in 2024, few can match the sheer tactical awareness and lightning-fast refutations he propels through. In fact, his win rate after losing a piece is a jaw-dropping 99.74% — it’s as if he feeds on adversity like a chess-playing phoenix rising from the ashes.
Known for playing long, strategic battles as well, his average moves per win is 68, and he rarely resigns early, showcasing not only his fighting spirit but a penchant for the long haul in the endgame (which he encounters nearly 79% of the time). Jonathan’s style is akin to a marathon runner disguised as a sprinter — endurance meets explosiveness.
Off the board, Jonathan’s psychological resilience is just as impressive; with a tilt factor of only 17 and an astonishing longest winning streak of 18 games, many would envy his calm under pressure. However, when casual games sneak in, his win difference falls, hinting that even legends prefer their adrenaline served with a competitive edge.
Beyond ratings, Jonathan possesses a uniquely secret opening arsenal (aptly named "Top Secret") where over 51,000 blitz games have been played, with a winning average touching 52%. In bullet, he boasts a 52.7% win rate across 45,000+ games—a testament to his consistency amidst chaotic time controls. Forget about predictable lines; this is a player who keeps you guessing until the final second.
Opponents beware: among his most frequently faced rivals are “bm_on_icc” and “shikshawithpraveen,” but Jonathan’s win rates against opposition vary like a fairytale rollercoaster — from perfect scores of 100% against a select few to brutal 0% hangovers in some clashes.
In sum, Jonathan Corbblah is a chess gladiator of the blitz and bullet arenas, known for sharp tactical strikes, long endgame duels, and a psychological steel that withstands the fiercest blitz battles. Next time you sit down to blitz with Jonathan, bring your A-game — and maybe a helmet.
