As white, she enjoys a slight advantage with a 52.2% win rate, proving she can take the initiative and push relentlessly.

Speed Demon and Opening Secrets

Whether blitz, rapid, or bullet, Evgenia’s success can partly be credited to her mysterious “Top Secret” openings—a collection of strategies so clever that opponents wonder if they were facing a chess wizard or a grandmaster from another dimension! Also notable is her love for the Caro-Kann Defense Panov Modern Mieses Line, where she’s achieved a perfect win record (at least in the handful of games played).
