GMShakyOval - The Rollercoaster Grandmaster

Meet GMShakyOval, a player whose chess journey resembles a thrilling rollercoaster ride through the kingdom of 64 squares. With peak Blitz, Rapid, and Bullet ratings all surpassing the 1500 mark, they prove they're no stranger to fast-paced battles and tactical skirmishes, even if the oval sometimes wiggles a bit!

A Blitzy Thriller

In Blitz, GMShakyOval reached a dazzling peak rating of 1624 in May 2020, showcasing aggressive and resilient play. Across hundreds of games, their wins and losses are seemingly neck-and-neck (474 wins to 494 losses), with a modest dose of draws mixed in—a testament to their gritty competitive spirit. When playing Blitz, they favor dynamic openings like the Queen's Pawn Opening Zukertort Chigorin Variation and the classic Italian Game, wielding them with nearly 50% win rates and above.

Rapid & Bullet: Quick Strikes and Tactical Bumps

Rapid games have been a mixed bag, with the player enjoying some successful skirmishes in the Queen's Pawn Zukertort Chigorin Variation boasting a win rate of over 66%, and even unleashing their chess prowess twice in the Three Knights Opening and Queen’s Pawn Chigorin Variation, both undefeated!

Bullet is less forgiving for GMShakyOval, but hey, two games without a win just means more potential waiting to explode in future matches. Even in this lightning-fast format, they managed to touch a peak of 1547 rating, a solid feat!

Style and Resilience

Known for an early resignation rate of just 6%, GMShakyOval is no quitter. They tend to drag their opponents deep into the endgame (62.8% frequency), averaging a hefty 73 moves in wins — so don’t expect them to go down without a spectacular fight.

With a remarkable comeback rate near 78%, GMShakyOval brilliantly bounces back from setbacks, proving that when the oval shakes, the spirit only strengthens. Though tilts happen (an 11% tilt factor), they fashion each defeat as a lesson rather than a tragedy.

Psychological Notes & Daily Drama

Their best time to play? Sharpen your knives at exactly 11:00 AM—a perfect moment to strike fear into the hearts of their opponents. Oddly enough, daily games tell a tale of struggle—with 8 losses and zero wins in recent quick daily matches, it seems the oval prefers to keep off sluggish playdays.

The Memorable Games

On June 9, 2020, GMShakyOval sealed a nice victory by checkmate against Bobhard67 with the King's Indian Attack, showing off graceful finishing skills. Not to be outdone, they also earned resignations from opponents like Nash_de and d230, reinforcing their knack for grinding down adversaries with strategic pressure.

Of course, every hero faces setbacks. Recent losses to players like adan82 by checkmate, or yonsaurio1313 by resignation, highlight that even the most careful ovals can wobble now and then.

Opponent Relations & Trivia

They have a delightfully mixed record against friends and foes alike but show admirable strength and resilience throughout.
