Stanoje Jovic, the Blitz Specialist
Stanoje Jovic, known online as DvaHrasta, is a FIDE Master whose chess profile is defined by relentless blitz energy, long games, and an impressive ability to keep finding chances after things go wrong. In other words, the clock may be running out, but Jovic clearly has not received the memo.
Playing Style and Chess Identity
Jovic is strongly associated with the English Opening, especially when playing White, where the opening appeared with remarkable frequency. As Black, the Caro-Kann Defense is a familiar fortress, producing thousands of blitz games and a notably strong overall result.
His statistics suggest a practical, resilient player. Jovic reaches endgames frequently, averages more than 75 moves in wins, and records an outstanding comeback rate of 86.59%. Losing a piece is apparently treated less as a disaster and more as an invitation to make the game interesting.
Competitive Record
- Blitz record: 12,935 wins, 8,210 losses, and 2,290 draws.
- Longest winning streak: 15 games.
- Rapid record: 93 wins, 6 losses, and 27 draws.
- Bullet record: 4 wins from 4 games.
- White win rate: 58.74%, compared with 51.88% as Black.
- Most common checking piece: the rook, responsible for more than 22,000 recorded checks.
Opening Repertoire
The numbers show a broad but recognizable repertoire. The English Opening performs especially well, with a recorded blitz win rate above 61% in the general category. The Caro-Kann Defense is even more frequently used, combining solid structure with enough counterplay to keep opponents uncomfortable.
Jovic also experiments with the Scotch Game, Queen’s Indian Defense, Nimzo-Indian Defense, and several sharp side lines. The result is a style that can look calm for 20 moves before suddenly becoming a full-speed tactical emergency.

Whether operating under the name Stanoje Jovic or the username DvaHrasta, this FIDE Master stands out as a durable online competitor. The combination of opening preparation, endgame stamina, strong comeback instincts, and a clear preference for blitz makes Jovic a player who is rarely out of the game until the final move, the final second, or occasionally both.
