Григорий Гусаров (Gusarov91)

International Master of the Chess Universe

Григорий Гусаров, or as the chess world knows him by his online avatar Gusarov91, is not just any player – he’s an International Master crowned by FIDE, a title earned through a blend of tactical brilliance and relentless battles on the 64 squares.

His lightning-fast hands excel particularly in blitz chess, where ratings have soared as high as 2786 – a number that almost makes chess engines blink in disbelief. Bullet chess? He’s no slouch there either, reaching peaks around 2661. And though rapid chess is a rare sight in his repertoire, every game played there is a perfect 100% win rate in small samples – talk about efficiency!

Playing Style & Personality

Imagine a player who shrugs off early losses with a roll of the bishop, and comes back swinging with an 82% comeback rate. That’s Gusarov for you. He’s a master of endgames, often dragging matches into the final throes where his deep knowledge shines. His games are marathon affairs, averaging about 83 moves in wins and even longer in losses – because quitting early simply isn’t his style.

While others might throw in the towel, Gusarov sometimes admits to an early resignation rate of under 0.4%, but trust that it’s always for a reason, probably calculated down to the last pawn.

Famous Openings

The secret sauce? Well, most of his games fall under a mysteriously titled opening known simply as "Top Secret" – presumably to confuse and unsettle opponents. When he does show his hand, expect the Indian Game Spielmann Indian Variation or a sharp Slav Defense Modern Alapin Smyslov Variation that’ll make you wish you packed a calculator.

Notable Records

• Longest Winning Streak: 80 games – because once he's on a roll, the board practically burns under his fingers.
• Total Blitz Wins: 882, outpacing his losses by a comfortable margin.
• Bullet Mastery: Nearly 400 wins and counting, wielding the mouse like a knight with a lance.
• White Pieces Win Rate: Over 60%, showing that starting first really suits his style.

The Psychological Edge

His "tilt factor" is a manageable 8 – meaning even when the going gets tough, he keeps his cool better than many grandmasters. His best hour for performing miracles is surprisingly early at 6:00 AM – after coffee, of course.

Recent Highlights

Just this year, Gusarov91 scored a brilliant victory against former top-tier opponents, sealing wins often by resignation, including a recent clazzic game against NLLO777 where precision was the key. But no chess career is without its moments of humility, like the tough loss on time to LegacyOfTatyaVinchu, which only adds fuel for future battles.

Whether online or offline, Григорий Гусаров embodies the spirit of chess warriors: tactical, patient, sometimes unpredictable, and always entertaining. Keep your eyes peeled – his next move might just redefine the art of blitz.
