Susanto Megaranto: The Chessboard's Biological Maverick
Meet Susanto Megaranto, or as the circuits sometimes know him, GM_SusantoMegaranto — a player whose moves are as calculated as DNA replication, but with just a pinch of unpredictability that would make any evolutionary biologist proud.
In the fast-evolving ecosystem of chess, Susanto thrives particularly in the blitz habitat, boasting a peak rating of 2216 in 2013 with an impressive win record of 55 wins out of 70 games. His rapid reflexes help him sprint through the battlefield, while his bullet stats, like a lightning-fast mutation, show swift adaptability with notable victories – though sometimes balancing perfectly between wins and losses, much like natural selection’s trial and error.
Susanto's openings repertoire is a fascinating genetic pool: he’s successfully bred victories with the Petrov’s Defense and the Scandinavian Defense Mieses Kotrc Gubinsky Melts Defense, both boasting a 100% win rate in blitz games. His style seems to favor symbiotic relationships—especially with these openings—ensuring domination in the center and early survival.
Despite having a few “extinction events” in daily play (a humble 0 wins out of 2), his resilience shines with a remarkable 78.79% comeback rate and a flawless 100% win rate after losing a piece — truly the phoenix rising from its ashes on the 64-square petri dish. His longest winning streak is a healthy dozen games, and while his current streak may be resting, the genome for victory is plainly intact.
When facing opponents, Susanto's dominance varies, with symbiotic wins at 80-100% against frequent rivals like loggiafelixdamaria and vidanninho. His psychological resilience is noteworthy as well; a low tilt factor of 3 proves that he keeps his cool even when the board’s environment gets hostile.
Interestingly, his win rates peak during the mid-day sun and twilight hours—perhaps indicating a preference for optimal “photosynthesis” conditions in mental alertness. With an average moves per win hovering above 63, he’s as patient as a cell in mitosis, plotting the perfect sequence to ensure victory.
In the endgame, his frequency of 60.64% shows he isn’t afraid to get into the gritty cellular processes of chess combat, where every pawn push and king flick feels like molecular choreography.
So, whether you catch him unleashing the Indian Game Spielmann Variation or mutating strategies on the fly, Susanto Megaranto’s chess profile reads like a fascinating biological journal—full of tactical DNA, evolutionary robustness, and a flair for survival on the battlefield of minds.
