Dimitri Komarov - Grandmaster Extraordinaire

Meet Dimitri Komarov, known in the chess universe as gmkomarov, a Grandmaster who doesn’t just play chess — he practically lives it. With a FIDE title that commands respect, Dimitri slices through the competition with surgical precision and a flair for dramatic finishes.

Rating and Style

Dimitri's blitz rating peaked impressively at 2547 in early 2020, while his bullet rating even soared to a dizzying 2617 by the end of the same year. This speed demon dominates fast-paced formats with a win-rate that would make even the clock nervous. But don’t think he’s all flash and dash; his play shows seasoned strategic depth, averaging over 56 moves per win — slow and steady can still win the race.

Play Record & Personality

With a blitz win record of 453 victories out of 557 games using his secret (top-secret!) opening repertoire, Dimitri keeps his opposition guessing and his fingers dancing across the keyboard. He’s also demonstrated remarkable resilience with an 80.92% comeback rate after setbacks, proving he’s as tough mentally as he is tactically sharp.

Favorite Battle Times

Ever wondered when Dimitri is at his chess peak? He’s a morning warrior and early afternoon strategist. Around 13:00 hours, his win rate hits a perfect 100% (yes, we checked the data multiple times). Early birds beware—his accuracy between 4 AM and 9 AM is nothing short of legendary, boasting a 96%+ win rate! Night owls might get lucky, but no promises.

Fun Facts & Quirks

  • Longest Winning Streak: An astonishing 78 games — some say he just ran out of opponents to challenge.
  • Current Winning Streak: Still going strong at 10 games, because why stop?
  • Psychological Warfare: Very low tilt factor (4), meaning Dimitri keeps his cool even when the pieces attack back.
  • Fast Resigner: Dimitri knows when to cut losses, with an early resignation rate of 8%, saving precious time for another victory.

Memorable Recent Masterstroke

In a recent live blitz duel on December 3, 2023, Dimitri executed a flawless victory against dava777, ending with a resignation — because sometimes, even kings know when to quit. His games often feature classic openings like the Sicilian Defense and Queen’s Gambit Declined, proving he’s equally comfortable in aggressive and positional battles.

A Grandmaster by title, a tactician by passion, and a speedster by nature — Dimitri Komarov keeps proving that chess is not just a game, but an art form. Watch his moves or better yet, try to challenge him... just don’t say we didn’t warn you.
