Garun Nureev (aka Garpun) - International Master
Garun Nureev, known in the chess circles as Garpun, is a formidable International Master accredited by FIDE, who brings a blend of tactical sharpness and endgame savvy to every board. Whether blitzing through games at lightning speed or slowly dismantling opponents in longer formats, Garun's style is a fascinating mix of patience and fierce resilience.
Rating Chronicles
Garpun’s ratings tell tales of rapid climbs and peak performances, especially in Blitz and Bullet chess. In Blitz, they soared from a modest 1963 in 2017 all the way past the blazing 2700 mark around 2020-2021, proving that speed truly is their ally. Bullet ratings weren’t shy either—hovering over 2400 for most years and peaking at 2522 in 2021, which is basically chess on steroids.
On the Clock and On the Hunt
With a win-loss record that's more rollercoaster than gentle cruise—250 wins and 263 losses in Blitz, 534 wins and 500 losses in Bullet—it’s clear Garun never backs down from a fight. Not just a stats enthusiast, they owned a stunning longest winning streak of 11 games and are currently basking in a 3-game win streak. Opponents beware: your chances vary wildly, from 100% wins against some to a puzzling 0% against others—a testament to Garun’s complex and unpredictable chess persona.
The Opening Houdini
Playing with style, Garpun opts for "Top Secret" openings—maybe even literally, as opponents are often left guessing! Their winning rate in these secretive setups is impressive: nearly 45% in Blitz and a notable 50% in Bullet, with a perfect undefeated record in Rapid where they've played very few but very decisive games.
Chess Habits & Quirks
- Endgames: Preferable. With an endgame frequency over 83%, Garun takes the late stages of the game seriously—where true masters separate themselves.
- Fight on: Their comeback rate is a whopping 87.83%, and if Garun loses a piece, don't count them out—they have a 100% win rate after such setbacks.
- Average Move Counts: Wins come with precision in about 69 moves, losses drag to 80 moves—persistence is key, even when the going gets tough.
- Psychological Edge: Sure, everyone tilts sometimes (Garpun’s tilt factor is 8), but their resilience is stronger than most.
Fun Facts
Garpun plays strongest in the evening hours, boasting up to 59% win rates around dinner time (6 PM) and even sporting an uncanny 58.75% at 7 PM. The weekends are lucky days, with win rates over 54% on Saturdays and Wednesdays boasting just above 52%. Monday’s motivation might be hard to find though, with only a 37.5% win rate—chess Mondays, am I right?
In sum, wherever Garun Nureev sits at the board, the game is guaranteed to be a tactical battle loaded with surprises, secret openings, and tenacious endgame play. They may tilt occasionally, but their chess spirit never surrenders.
