Eduard Miller (aka Fluffey)

FIDE Master & Master of Mischief

Eduard Miller, proudly holding the title of FIDE Master, is a chess enthusiast who trades pawns and witticisms with equal flair. Known in the online chess community by the charming username Fluffey, Eduard has been weaving intricate combinations and plotting checkmates since at least 2015.

Rating Rollercoaster and Peak Performance

Starting with a modest blitz rating of about 1358 in early 2015, Eduard catapulted to a lightning-fast peak of 2600 blitz in mid-2019—just enough to make the chess gods squint with respect. His daily ratings peaked at 2362, bullet at 2320, and his rapid prowess tops out at a snappy 2245.

Playing Style: The Artful Dodger

Eduard’s games are usually a scenic route through the complex jungles of chess endgames—he winds up in endgames over 77% of the time, proving he's truly a marathoner more than a sprinter. His average winning game lasts about 69 moves, showing he appreciates a long, thoughtful tussle rather than a quick knockout.

He’s also a tricky tactician, with a comeback rate nearing 79% and winning more than half the time after losing a piece. But fair warning: his tilt factor of 9 hints that when the chess chips are down, emotions might roar louder than rooks!

Stats That Speak Volumes (And Chuckles)

• An overall blitz record boasts nearly 500 wins and counting, with a near-even number of losses and a handful of dramatic draws. Clearly, Fluffey loves to keep the adrenaline pumping.
• With a whimsical penchant for the “Top Secret” opening – perhaps a nod to his sly approach – he has a solid win rate hovering around 50% in blitz and an impressive 94% in rapid. Mystery and magic? You bet.
• His favorite battlegrounds are Wednesdays and Sundays (win rates over 52% and 65%, respectively), and he’s suspiciously effective around 11 AM – the best time for world domination, apparently.

Most Memorable Battles

Eduard’s recent games read like a thrilling novel: a dazzling checkmate victory on February 27, 2024, where he methodically dismantled his opponent’s defenses using the Accelerated London System – not just winning, but winning with style. He’s no stranger to the sweet taste of victory or the occasional humbling defeat.

Fun Facts

• Longest winning streak: an epic 36 games, enough to make any opponent reconsider their strategy (or life choices).
• He’s undefeated against quite a few opponents, boasting perfect win rates of 100% against several users. Talk about a one-man wrecking crew!
• Despite his tactical brilliance, Eduard also has a sense of humor with resignation moves accounting for many of his wins. Sometimes knowing when to quit is just good sportsmanship.

Whether slinging queen sacrifices or sneaking in a clever fork, Eduard “Fluffey” Miller is a formidable force on the board and a delightful character off it. If you’re lucky enough to catch him online, prepare for a game filled with surprises, sharp moves, and the occasional cheeky smile.
