Drazen Dragicevic - FIDE Master Extraordinaire

Known in the chess world as Dr_Nezard, Drazen Dragicevic is a master of the 64 squares and a proud bearer of the prestigious FIDE Master title. If chess were a kingdom, Drazen would be one of its wise rulers, commanding armies of pawns and knights with cunning and flair.

Since 2011, Drazen has dazzled opponents across blitz, bullet, and rapid formats, playing thousands of games with a tactical awareness that would make even the sharpest swordsman envious. Blessed with an amazing comeback rate of nearly 90% and a perfect win rate after losing a piece (yes, 100%!), Drazen’s resilience is legendary. Opponents better watch out – this player turns even the bleakest positions into triumphs!

Drazen's blitz rating peaked at an impressive 2743 in 2021, while bullet chess saw ratings climb to over 2600. Rapid chess? A top performance rating of 2624 shows it’s just another format to conquer. This versatility makes Drazen a formidable opponent at any time control or under any pressure.

With a playing style that favors endurance (an incredible 84% endgame frequency), games tend to stretch and thrill, with an average of about 79 moves per win. So if you're expecting a quick checkmate, think again — Drazen prefers the slow burn of strategic fires.

Off the board, Drazen may have a tilt factor of 12 (meaning sometimes the coffee runs out and so does patience), but on the board, the nerves remain steely. The player’s diverse and sometimes mysterious opening repertoire includes the intriguingly named "Top Secret" opening that boasts a winning record north of 54% in blitz games — secret indeed!

Drazen is no stranger to well-fought battles, racking up over 1800 wins in blitz and 1889 wins in bullet. Among foes, some learn fast — with a 100% win rate against multiple rivals — and others are reminded that Drazen doesn’t mess around.

As a reminder of true skill under fire, just check Drazen's most recent games: victories by precise strategic moves, time pressure mastery, and a knack for threading the needle in tight spots. His last win on May 31, 2022, featured a relentless assault culminating in a triumphant victory after a long positional fight.

In short, Drazen Dragicevic is not just playing chess; they are conducting a symphony of knights, bishops, and pawns, with every move a note in their ongoing masterpiece on the board.
