Arkojyoti Mukherjee

Profile Summary: Arkojyoti Mukherjee (aka FlyingTurtle007)

Meet Arkojyoti Mukherjee, better known in the chess realm as FlyingTurtle007 — a chess player whose rating journey resembles a rollercoaster with unexpected twists, turns, and the occasional moment of zen.

From Humble Beginnings to Rapid Rises

Starting off with a modest rapid rating hovering around the 500 mark in 2022, Arkojyoti demonstrated the resilience and tenacity of a turtle flying through stormy skies. By mid-2023, he soared past 700 in rapid rating — an impressive feat for anyone who started near 500! While his peak rapid rating was an eye-catching 1006 in early 2022 (a brief flash of brilliance or sheer luck?), his consistent grit kept him climbing back whenever ratings dipped.

Playing Style: Patient, Tactical & Sometimes Impatient

Arkojyoti embodies the paradox of his username. Like a turtle, he patiently navigates the chessboard, with an average of nearly 48 moves per win, signaling long, strategic battles. Yet, much like a flying turtle might suddenly drop from the sky, his games occasionally end in early resignation — but only about 4.6% of the time, showing he usually fights hard till the end.

Not one to give up easily, FlyingTurtle007 has a remarkable 72% comeback rate when behind — a true testament to fighting spirit and perhaps some ninja-turtle skills in tactics.

Favorite Openings and Quirks

He’s got a secret weapon he guards fiercely, simply labeled as "Top Secret" in his rapid and blitz openings, with nearly 620 rapid games logged and a win rate just shy of 50%. The Italian Game seems to be his happy dance, boasting a perfect 2-0 record — a small sample but an impressive one! His adventurous streak shines through venturing into gambits like the Englund Gambit, with mixed results.

When Does the Turtle Take Flight?

The best time for Arkojyoti to play is around 6 PM, where his win rate rockets to an astonishing 66.7%. Early mornings at 2 AM and 5 AM are surprisingly productive too, with nearly 60% win rates. Meanwhile, those who challenge him at 7 PM or later (21:00 onwards) might find themselves in calm waters — or complete silence — as his win rate drops to zero, perhaps because even FlyingTurtle007 needs to recharge.

Memorable Battles & Notable Opponents

Arkojyoti has tussled with players like dxsweet, sehvic, and robsonmnm recently, grabbing some wins and suffering a few losses along the way.

His longest winning streak is an impressive 19 games — proving when the flying turtle catches wind, it really takes off! His resilience shines through his ability to snatch wins even after losing material, with a 43.5% success rate in such tricky positions.

Chess By the Numbers

• Overall Rapid record: 310 wins, 287 losses, 31 draws — living proof of a fighter who never quits.
• Blitz battles: 12 wins and 12 losses, perfectly balanced, much like an intense game of blitz chess demands.
• Daily chess adventures: Less kind, with no wins and 3 losses — maybe daily chess lacks the excitement of the rapid time controls.

Fun Fact

Despite the daunting chess username, Arkojyoti might just be the zen master of resilience, patiently maneuvering through complex chess positions, proving it’s less about speed and more about persistence (and perhaps a dash of turtle magic!).

In short: Arkojyoti Mukherjee is a player who is steadily leveling up, with a knack for dramatic comebacks, an arsenal of secret openings, and the determination of a flying turtle chasing its next big win.

Keep an eye on FlyingTurtle007 — slow and steady might just win this race with a little turbo boost!
