Enkhtuul Altan-Ulzii

Enkhtuul Altan-Ulzii, known online as enkhtuul, is a Mongolian Woman Grandmaster whose real home is the blitz clock. She has played more than a thousand rated blitz games on the platform, turning the virtual lobby into her personal training hall and battleground.

From Rapid Roots to Blitz Stardom

Enkhtuul's online career started with a flash of Rapid promise, touching 2200 in December 2019. But the faster the time control, the more she shines. Her blitz rating hit 2535 (2024-04-29) in April 2024, a peak earned through months of heavy, fearless play. The trajectory is right there in the chart:

Never Say Die

What separates Enkhtuul from the casual clicker is her resilience. She posts a comeback rate of 84.7%, wins more than half her games even after losing a piece, and owns a longest winning streak of 17 games. Her decisive games average around 78 moves, so do not queue up expecting a quickie. She reaches the endgame in nearly 80% of her games, and once there, she is in her element.

Signature Weapons

As White, Enkhtuul loves the classical Four Knights Game, where her Rapid win rate soars to 85.7%. As Black, she swears by the Alekhine Defense, her most-played blitz opening by a mile. She is also not shy about unleashing the Blackburne Shilling Gambit, a tricky trap that wins her 80.8% of her blitz games. The full menu of her opening tastes is best seen in

Familiar Foes

You cannot play this much without making frenemies. Her most frequent dance partner is squishgama, with 137 games and a razor-thin rivalry: squishgama holds 66 wins to Enkhtuul's 55, with 16 draws. Against oodii, the script flips, as she owns a 41 to 24 edge. These long-running rematches have forged her into one of the most battle-hardened blitz regulars on the site.

Quirks and Habits

  • Her win rate at 06:00 is 78.95%. Either she is a morning person or the internet is quieter then.
  • She resigns early only 7.69% of the time. She will make you prove the win.
  • Against equal-rated opponents she wins 75% of the time, which is exactly the kind of math that keeps rivals up at night.
  • She is nearly as dangerous with Black (50.39% wins) as with White (54.99% wins), so there is no safe color to face her with.
