Aron Teh - FIDE Master and Tactical Virtuoso

Aron Teh, also known online as Ellipsoul, is no ordinary chess player. With the prestigious title of FIDE Master under their belt, Aron has proven to be a formidable presence on the 64 squares, especially in the fast-paced blitz and bullet formats.

A Lightning Journey Through the Ratings

Starting from modest beginnings in 2017 with a blitz rating just shy of 2000, Aron quickly stormed the scene, soaring to a peak blitz rating over 2700 by 2019—a rating many grandmasters would envy in faster time controls. Not to be outdone, their bullet performance reached similar heights, with a top peak near 2700 in 2023. When it comes to rapid and daily chess, Aron keeps a solid, respectable game with consistent ratings hovering in the high 1900s to mid 2300s.

Playing Style & Strengths

Known for an aggressive yet calculated playstyle, Aron has a knack for tactical fireworks. With a comeback rate of over 53% and a win rate near 59% even after losing a piece, this player is as resilient as a chessboard's most stubborn knight. Their games tend to last about 50 moves on average, showing patience but a preference for sharp complications.

Aron’s psychological resilience is noteworthy, maintaining a low tilt factor (16) in a game mode where many crumble — proving a cool head even during blitz battles. Early resignations happen over half the time; perhaps a sign of self-confidence or a “Why drag it out?” attitude.

Achievements & Fun Facts

  • Longest winning streak: A jaw-dropping 32 games, enough to make a chess robot reboot out of respect.
  • Win rate in blitz: About 55%, showing consistency against thousands of online opponents.
  • Favorite openings: Classified as "Top Secret," because who wants to reveal their winning secrets?
  • Daytime advantage: Best win rates in early morning and late evening hours—might just be a chess vampire.

Opponent Dynamics

Aron has battled numerous foes repeatedly, with over 350 games against top rival xshyne. The rivalry is intense but balanced, with a win rate just under 50%. Against “atomic_dog,” Aron boasts nearly 73% wins — clearly the alpha's got this atomic pup on a leash.

The Final Word

Whether blitzing through thousands of rapid-fire games or grinding through daily chess duels, Aron Teh remains a chess powerhouse with a flair for tactical prowess and psychological fortitude. For those brave enough to face them, you better prepare: there may be no mercy, only checkmate.

Hi Aron (a.k.a. Ellipsoul)!

You are already an elite Crazyhouse player (peak ≈ ). The notes below highlight what is working and, more importantly, what can be tuned so you can push through the next rating plateau.

What you’re doing well

  • Relentless initiative: You rarely let the move order lapse; quick piece activity keeps opponents on the back foot  – e.g. the Qg2# miniature versus chess_uz_abduvohob.
  • Creative piece-in-hand usage: Layering drops with board threats (14…B@f3+, 20…Q@e2+) shows excellent grasp of Crazyhouse tactics.
  • Flexible openings: 1.Nf3/1.d4 systems sidestep heavy theory and let you steer positions toward tactical chaos where you excel.

Recurring issues to address

  1. King safety after speculative sacs
    The N@h6 / B@g5 concept is powerful, yet in the loss to Jozef Dobcsányi your own king became the target once the attack stalled. Before sacrificing, ask yourself: “Do I have two forcing moves after this drop?”
  2. Overlooking defensive drop squares
    Q@h1# (gedzele) and Q@g7# (velo111) reveal blind spots on the dark squares around your king. Add a line to your move checklist: “What can my opponent drop on g2/g7/h2/h7 right now?”
  3. Back-rank & diagonal holes
    …B@e3# and similar motifs occur because the escape square is missing. Make a habit of giving the king luft (h3/h6) once rooks vacate the back rank.
  4. Time-management swings
    In wins you finish with >40 s; in losses the clock dips under 30 s around move 25. Practice “mini-think” moves (simple improving drops) to buy planning time.

Opening tweaks worth testing

ColourCurrent planSuggested refinement
WhiteNf3 g3 Bg2 h3 setupInsert c2-c4 against …d5 to contest the centre before flanking play.
BlackFrench-style e6/d6/Be7Versus 1.Nf3, test an immediate …d5 to claim space and free the light bishop.

Targeted training plan (next 7 days)

  1. Play 20 unrated games forbidding yourself to sac before castling; focus on king security patterns.
  2. During post-game review, mark every position where a g/h-file drop was possible. Track whether you noticed it in real-time.
  3. Analyse this critical sequence from your last loss and find improvements for both sides:

Keep sharpening your tactics, but balance them with rock-solid defensive habits. Looking forward to seeing your next batch of games – good luck!
