National Master Extraordinaire

Aaron Grabinsky is a chess player who has bravely earned the title of National Master. Not content with just casual play, Aaron has battled it out across thousands of lightning-fast bullet and blitz games, showcasing a blend of strategy and speed that leaves opponents both baffled and impressed.

Fierce Speedster and Opening Specialist

With a peak blitz rating of 2490 and a bullet peak climbing to an astonishing 2570, Aaron’s reflexes on the board are nothing short of ninja-like. His signature openings in bullet? A deadly dance of the Van ‘t Kruijs Opening, the French Defense in all its variations, and the thrilling Closed Sicilian Defense Grand Prix Attack. Opponents beware: Grabinski’s win rates in these lines soar above 70%, proving he's not just fast, but smart.

A Record to Boast (and Occasional Humble Moments)

Against the clock, Aaron has amassed an eye-popping 3524 wins in bullet play alone, peppered with the occasional loss and draw (hey, even masters have their off days!). Notable winning streaks reached a staggering 40 games in a row—enough to make any chess fan jealous. The loss streak? A mere 7, which is practically a warm-up!

Style & Strategy

Known for an 85% comeback rate after setbacks, Aaron thrives when the chips are down and the danger is high—hallmarks of a player who never throws in the towel early (only 0.94% early resignations!). His games usually stretch to an average of 80+ moves, proving he loves a good, long fight rather than quick tricks. Predictably, his white pieces win roughly 70% of the time, and black fares nearly as well, with a win rate around 67%.

Psychological Warfare & Fun Facts

With a modest tilt factor of 7, Aaron manages to keep his cool better than most when the pressure mounts. His best chess-playing hours are early afternoon, especially around 3 PM — a perfect excuse to schedule important games at snack time.
Also, he’s famously better against players rated lower than himself, winning nearly three-quarters of those matches, though facing higher-rated foes is a different beast—let’s say it’s an ongoing learning experience!

Memorable Games

For those who love classics, Aaron’s recent victory over "AUSSIE_PINOY" demonstrated masterful technique, turning a tense endgame into a triumph on time. When not winning elegantly, Aaron keeps opponents on their toes with tricky time scrambles and clever openings.
