GazaSoul - Woman FIDE Master

GazaSoul, proudly holding the title of Woman FIDE Master, is a force to be reckoned with on the chessboard. Known for dazzling tactical awareness and a fearless approach, GazaSoul combines deep strategy with an uncanny ability to bounce back under pressure — boasting a comeback rate of an astonishing 93.2%, because who likes giving up anyway?

Rating and Performance

With peak ratings soaring up to 2526 in Bullet chess, 2248 in Blitz, and 2186 in Rapid as of mid-2025, GazaSoul has clearly mastered the art of fast-paced games. Their play is a rollercoaster of tactical brilliance and gripping battles, often locking in long endgames (~81 moves on average in wins!), proving that patience is a virtue—and sometimes a weapon.

Style & Personality

Known for a low early resignation rate of just 1.35%, GazaSoul fights on till the bitter end, even when the chips are down. Their psychological resilience shines with a tilt factor of only 7 (a chess player’s version of “I’ll keep calm and castle on”). Night owls beware: GazaSoul’s best time to strike is midnight — when most are asleep, this player thrives!

Opening Arsenal

Whether it’s the Sicilian Defense Canal Attack that boasts a perfect 100% win record or the legendary (and mysterious) Top Secret opening with a solid 53.66% win rate over 82 games, GazaSoul’s opening repertoire is like a game of chess-themed spy thriller — full of surprises and plot twists.

Recent Highlights

In their latest recorded blitz match, GazaSoul delivered a picturesque checkmate against Tommytantl, showcasing crafty combination play in the English Defense. You can check out the thrilling finale here — it's checkmate served with a side of style.

Head-to-Head & Reputation

GazaSoul takes down opponents with surgical precision, especially those unprepared for their unorthodox yet deadly strategies. Their win rates can swing wildly against certain players, but against the chess world, they remain unpredictable and formidable. Friends and foes alike hold their breath when the username pops up — after all, it’s not just a game; it’s GazaSoul’s chess theater.

Fun Fact

GazaSoul boasts a near-perfect record at the stroke of midnight (100% win rate at 00:00 hours). Clearly, sleep is overrated when you can checkmate in your pajamas!

In the ever-dramatic dance of pawns and kings, GazaSoul is both the enigmatic composer and the fearless performer.

Feedback for GazaSoul

You've shown solid play in your recent games with a good grasp of opening principles and a strategic approach to the middlegame. Your victories reflect strong calculation and the ability to convert advantages, such as your precise handling in the Petroff Defense and Sicilian structures.

Strengths

  • Opening Repertoire: You demonstrate a good understanding of several openings, including the Petroff Defense, Sicilian (Scheveningen and others), and English Defense setups. Maintaining familiarity with key ideas is helping you reach playable middlegames.
  • Active Play: You often create dynamic chances and put pressure on your opponents, as seen in your attacking attempts with pawn pushes and piece activity.
  • Endgame Technique: Your last wins show strong tactical awareness leading to decisive endings, including the ability to checkmate efficiently or win on time.

Areas for Improvement

  • Tactical Awareness Under Pressure: In your recent losses, there were moments where more cautious calculation or simpler moves might have prevented quick checkmates or material loss. Working on tactical motifs could improve your defensive skills during critical moments.
  • Time Management: Some games ended due to time pressure. Improving your pace without sacrificing accuracy will help maintain composure, especially in longer format games.
  • Positional Play & Planning: Occasionally, it's beneficial to slow down and evaluate key positional elements rather than forcing immediate action. For example, assessing pawn structure weaknesses and piece coordination could lead to more sustainable advantages.

Suggestions to Enhance Your Play

  • Review and solve tactical puzzles daily to sharpen your calculation and pattern recognition.
  • Analyze your losses to identify recurring mistakes, especially in the transition from opening to middlegame and during defense.
  • Practice time management by setting slower time controls in some training games to build a good balance between speed and accuracy.
  • Study model games in your preferred openings, focusing on middlegame plans and critical positional concepts.

Keep up the hard work! With steady improvement in these areas, your results and overall skill will continue to climb.
Happy training!
