Elmurod28: The Relentless Rapid Riddler
Meet elmurod28, a chess player whose rapid progress might make you wonder if they have a secret time machine. Bursting onto the scene in 2025 with a rapid rating that soared to a peak of 441, they’ve battled through hundreds of rapid games — 564 to be exact — with a near-even split of 268 wins and 286 losses. But hey, every loss just makes the victory that much sweeter, right?
Elmurod28 favors the Van ’t Kruijs Opening, tackling it in 434 rapid games, almost always with the style and tenacity of a true opening explorer. Their win rate here is a respectable 47.7%, which means the opening is a trusty companion rather than a predictable routine. The Scandinavian Defense is another favorite, boasting a win rate above 50%, proving that elmurod28 doesn't shy away from solid but tricky territory.
While rapid is their bread and butter, blitz and bullet are in the lineup too, with peak blitz and bullet ratings of 342 and 228 respectively. Not bad for lightning-fast decisions under pressure, though the win/loss numbers show there’s always room for a comeback (and there often is, a 59.47% comeback rate to be precise!).
Playing Characteristics & Memorable Moments

- Time Wizardry: Oddly enough, they excel early in the morning around 5 AM with a whopping 63% win rate! So if you want to catch elmurod28 off guard, maybe don’t schedule a dawn match.
- Psychological Insight: Tilt factor at 8 means even when the chips are down, elmurod28 keeps a relatively cool head — but a little coffee before match day never hurts.
Fun Facts & Recent Battles
