Aslan Aitbayev - International Master Extraordinaire

Aslan Aitbayev holds the prestigious title of International Master bestowed by FIDE, proving that he's more than just a casual player who moves pieces randomly. With a Blitz peak rating flirting with the 2800 mark and Bullet performances that could make even grandmasters blink, Aslan is a force to be reckoned with on the chessboard.

Starting in 2017 with ratings around 2450 in Blitz and just shy of 2500 in Bullet, Aslan’s rapid ascent over the years has been nothing short of spectacular. Whether in lightning-fast Bullet games or the more measured rapid format, he showcases exceptional tactical awareness, boasting a 100% win rate after losing a piece and a comeback rate north of 90%. Clearly, giving up material doesn’t make him fold like a cheap tent — he fights back with the grit of a true warrior!

His longest winning streak of 23 consecutive victories suggests a streak of brilliance so deep, you'd think he’s got chess pieces wired for telepathy. Currently riding a 4-game win streak, Aslan continues to prove why his opponents dread facing him.

He’s somewhat notorious for not hanging in early—even with an early resignation rate of only 0.34%, he knows when to cut losses and smartly preserve energy for the next battle. Endgames? They’re practically his playground, playing nearly 86% of his games into endgame territory, grinding opponents down with precision and patience.

On most days, Aslan’s chances are better than not, boasting a weekday win rate between 53% and 56%, and he’s especially deadly in the early morning hours, maintaining over 60% win rate between 3 and 6 AM—apparently, the crack of dawn is when the magic happens. Maybe coffee fuels those brilliant moves or maybe it’s just his passion for chess shining through when the world sleeps.

Facing familiar foes, Aslan has memorable rivalries (and triumphs) against multiple opponents, and a fascinatingly variable win rate against others. But one thing’s clear: his chess acumen and fearless spirit make him a titan in the blitz and bullet arenas.

In short — Aslan Aitbayev is not just navigating the 64 squares but is conquering them with style, wit, and a knack for tactical comebacks that would make even Houdini jealous. Whether you’re a fan or a foe, his games are definitely worth watching. Check, mate, and repeat!
