Daniil Yuffa - Chess Grandmaster Extraordinaire

Meet Daniil Yuffa, the Grandmaster who has mastered the 64 squares like a wizard commands a kingdom. Awarded the prestigious title by FIDE, Daniil is no stranger to the mental marathons of chess – whether it's blitz, bullet, or daily games.

Rating Rollercoaster & Style

Daniil's blitz peak rating soared to a breathtaking 2770 in September 2018, while in bullet games, he achieved a formidable peak of 2560 earlier that same year. His games are a mix of sharp tactical shots and deep strategic ideas, with an average of nearly 80 moves per win proving he's got stamina to burn. Don’t expect quick early resignations here – with only a 0.17 early resignation rate, Daniil fights to the end like a chess gladiator.

Game Stats & Records

With a career tally boasting over 900 blitz wins and 200 bullet victories, Daniil has proven his mettle repeatedly. His bullet win rate rests comfortably above 60%, while blitz games see a respectable 54% success. A true tactician, he boasts an impressive comeback rate of nearly 90%—losing a piece? So what, Daniil says: “Watch me win anyway!”

Playing Peaks and Valleys

Known to be a bit of a night owl, Daniil’s best performances often happen in the wee hours around 5 AM (maybe those dawn hours are for deep calculation or maybe for coffee-fueled inspiration). His longest winning streak is a gritty 13 games, although his dragons occasionally have an off-day—he's experienced losing streaks up to 8 games. But hey, who doesn’t occasionally sacrifice a pawn or two to keep things spicy?

Notable Openings and Opponents

Daniil often employs "unknown openings," proving he likes to keep his adversaries guessing (and sometimes scratching their heads). When he switches to his secret weapon, “Top Secret,” his win rate climbs dramatically to nearly 74%. His most frequent nemesis? The Twitch sensation drawdenied-twitch, battled 28 times with Daniil holding a nearly 46% win rate—because even Grandmasters enjoy a good rivalry.

Fun Facts

• With a tilt factor of 8, Daniil definitely feels the heat—but that just makes victories all the sweeter.
• He clocks an astounding 80% win rate at 5 AM, so if you want to beat him, maybe don’t challenge him too early in the morning.
• If there’s one thing Daniil hates, it’s quick quits: he rarely resigns early and fights until the bitter end.

Recent Chess Adventures

On November 9th, 2018, Daniil showcased his skills by winning a dramatic game against DarkAlekhine, forcing his opponent to resign after intense tactical pressure. A fine example of his strategic mastery and mental toughness lasting through countless moves.

Of course, not every day is a win – November 10th reminded us all that even Grandmasters have off days, as Daniil lost on time in a Sicilian Defense affair, proving that sometimes even the best need to watch the clock.

Daniil Yuffa is a chessplayer who blends patience, tactical genius, and a touch of mystery. Grandmaster by title and fierce competitor by nature, he is a thrilling presence on the chess battlefield. Challenge him wisely… or be ready to witness some serious checkmates!
