Evan Ju (aka Eilyisum)

FIDE Master Extraordinaire

Evan Ju is not just any chess player; Evan is a FIDE Master, a title earned by few and revered by many. Known in the chess circles as "Eilyisum," Evan's chess journey is a rollercoaster of blazing bullet games and strategic blitz battles, peppered with a little daily chess for good measure.

With a peak blitz rating soaring to an impressive 2729 in 2013 and a bullet rating high of 2840 in 2011, Evan is a force to be reckoned with in fast-paced chess. Their bullet wins outnumber losses by more than double, boasting nearly 20,000 bullet victories—enough to make any casual player’s knees tremble. The blitz stats echo a similar dominance, with an outstanding win rate in over 6,000 games.

But Evan is not just about sheer numbers. Their playing style is a blend of clever tactics, resilience, and a touch of psychological warfare. With an 85.68% comeback rate after adversity on the board and a strong ability to bounce back from losing pieces with a 66.16% win rate, Evan’s games are never dull. The FIDE Master approaches the endgame with passion, featuring in over 82% of their matches, often dragging opponents into long, tense battles averaging about 79 moves for a win.

Evan’s strategic prowess shines brightest in blitz tournaments, confidently wielding a “Top Secret” opening repertoire that yields a staggering 75% win rate over thousands of games. And while their rapid and daily play might not have the same Hollywood blockbuster flash, it’s no less effective—especially in daily chess where Evan's win rate is an astonishing 90.67%.

Not immune to the ups and downs of chess life, Evan has experienced the sting of losing streaks but also celebrated a phenomenal longest winning streak of 82 games. Currently, they are on a hot streak of 5 wins in a row, proving that the grind never stops.

When it comes to opponents, Evan holds impressive records against many, including a 100% win rate against several challengers, and a notably strategic edge over popular usernames like chesssexy and jlandaw. They tend to play best in the early morning hours, with peak performance around 6 AM, when the world is quiet and the mind sharp.

Off the board, Evan’s games are a spectacle of calculated aggression. Their recent victories include brilliant checkmate sequences and time-pressure wins, cementing their reputation as both a tactical beast and a psychological hitter.

In summary, Evan Ju is a title-holder with the heart of a gladiator, a mighty tactician who leaves opponents wondering if they've just played against a chess wizard... or a grandmaster in disguise.
