Gerasimenyuk Mikhail - FIDE Master Extraordinaire
Meet Gerasimenyuk Mikhail, aka Gerasimenyuk_Miha, a chess virtuoso who has earned the prestigious title of FIDE Master from the international chess federation, FIDE. Known for weaving tactical brilliance with psychological resilience, Gerasimenyuk is more than just a player—he’s a strategic wizard on 64 squares.
Over the years, Mikhail's bullet rating has soared as high as an astonishing 2736 (February 2025), illustrating his lightning-fast acuity in games where every second counts. His blitz prowess is equally formidable, peaking at an impressive 2729 in November 2021. While his rapid games might enjoy a slightly more leisurely pace, his peak rapid rating of 2202 back in April 2019 signals that he's no slouch even when the clock ticks more leisurely.
Mikhail’s playing style boasts a patient approach, with an average of 64 moves per game before the final curtain falls—indicating a fondness for deep, strategic endgames. Speaking of endgames, he’s shown a preference for them, appearing in over 66% of his games. His comeback rate after losing a piece is a bone-chilling 90.56%, proving he’s the kind of opponent who refuses to go gently into that good night.
His win rates are telling: with a comfortable 42.28% win rate in bullet using the intriguingly named Top Secret openings, and an even more respectable over 44% in blitz, he’s a force to be reckoned with regardless of time control. Daily chess games see his winning confidence rise above 61%, so you better beware if you try to outwit him in a casual setting.
When it comes to openings, Mikhail isn’t shy about exploring a diversified repertoire—ranging from the classic Scandinavian Defense to the Queens Pawn Opening, and a healthy dose of aggressive Torre and Kings Indian Attacks. Although the Slav Defense Modern Exchange isn’t exactly his playground, he shines with the Scandinavian Defense Mieses Kotrc Variation, scoring a remarkable 57.14% wins.
His most recent chess escapades showcase a fearless spirit. Just days ago, he dazzled with a checkmate victory against Kino using the Slav Defense Modern Three Knights Variation, concluding with a neat queen sacrifice leading to a swift end. Not everything goes his way, of course—losses come too, but his psychological tilt factor stands at a modest 18, which means he plays the long mental game better than most.
