Meet Mohammad Shah Moradi
Mohammad Shah Moradi, known online as enjoychess_youtube, is a FIDE Candidate Master with a content creator's heart. His username says it all: this is a player who loves chess so much he wants to show the world. He is a regular presence in fast time controls, and blitz is his declared home turf, even if bullet is where he occasionally goes completely feral, in the best way.
Playing Style
Moradi is a tactical fighter with an entertainer's instinct. His games are full of checks, queen moves, and early fireworks. Over thousands of online games, his most common checking piece is the queen, and he likes to deliver the first check around 55% of the time. He is comfortable on both sides of the board, with a slightly stronger record as White.
His opening repertoire is a mix of rock solid and gloriously weird. He regularly plays the London System, the Sicilian Defense, and the Caro-Kann Defense, but he is equally happy to trot out an Amar Gambit or the wonderfully named Blackburne Shilling Gambit. The
chart shows real danger when he gets his favorite setups on the board.If you want to see how he handles the Sicilian as White, here is a typical outing:
.A Fighter Who Never Quits
The numbers paint Moradi as a comeback artist. He wins about 84% of his games that reach a come-from-behind scenario, and he still wins over half the time after losing a piece. His longest winning streak is 32 straight wins, and even his longest losing streak, 15 games, could not keep him down for long. He also has an odd habit of playing his best chess at 5 AM, which is either dedication or a lifestyle choice.
Rivalries
No biography is complete without rivals. Moradi has crossed swords with zerkyzerky 71 times, winning 39 of those battles. He also holds a strong record against bloodpigs666 and has had the better of urban_chess in their 42 meetings. Meanwhile, players like quillotamaster and chepakh have given him trouble, proving that even the strongest online warriors have their nemeses.
