Mohammed Alsayed (gmalsayed)

Title: Grandmaster

Mohammed Alsayed, known in the chess realm as gmalsayed, is a formidable Grandmaster whose blitz and bullet prowess makes even the sharpest queens tremble. With a peak blitz rating soaring near 2940 in May 2024 and a bullet peak close to 2930, Mohammed exemplifies lightning-fast thinking paired with deep strategic vision.

A Career in (Fast) Motion

Starting from modest blitz ratings in the low 1900s back in 2016, Mohammed's meteoric rise saw him break the 2600+ barrier by 2018. His recent 2024 performances have been nothing short of spectacular, consistently grinding out wins and pushing ratings near the 2900 mark, a rarefied air where mere mortals fear to tread.

Fierce Opponents & Fan Favorites

Mohammed isn't just a solo superhero; he’s battled thousands including maitreia, alex_stripunsky, and davit_tiraturyan multiple times. With win rates flashing 100% against several players—proof that when he’s on, he’s unstoppable.

Fun Fact

He has an early resignation rate of only 0.75%, so don’t expect him to throw in the towel easily — it takes a masterful checkmate or a risky timeout to get him off the board!

Recent Games & Signature Moves

Just in November 2024, Mohammed dazzled by delivering checkmates and resignations alike:

  • Recent crushing victory via classic Queens Pawn Opening - checkmate in style!
  • Mastered the Englund Gambit with flair, turning wild gambits into swift wins.

If Mohammed were a chess piece, he’d be the queen — flexible, powerful, and with a knack for surprises. But luckily, in chess, he’s the one commanding all the pieces. Here’s to his next 40-win streak or a sudden tactical blast that leaves us all gasping!
