Harkamal Litt - The Chess Adventurer
Meet HarkamalSinghLitt, a chess player whose journey through the 64 squares is as colorful as it is relentless. While not quite reaching grandmaster heights yet, Harkamal’s rating dance from 443 to over 1000 in rapid chess shows a story of persistence, sprinkled with moments of brilliance and the occasional surprising blunder.
Rating Rollercoaster
Over 2,200 rapid games and more than 1,800 blitz and bullet duels later, Harkamal keeps proving that chess is a marathon, not a sprint. With a max rapid rating that recently nudged 1034 and a blitz peak residing comfortably in the mid-600s, this player shows a knack for steady improvement, even if the bullet rankings prefer to keep things unpredictable.
Playing Style & Mindset
Harkamal’s style is a study in endurance: averaging nearly 62 moves per win and about 77 moves per loss — definitely not the blitz-and-dash type. This patient chap doesn’t resign early often (just 1.25% early resignations), choosing instead to fight on and make opponents work hard for every point.
Endgames are the playground for Harkamal, appearing in almost 70% of games — because who doesn’t love a good cerebral showdown when the kings come out to play?
Superpowers & Quirks
- Comeback King: A stunning 69% comeback rate! Harkamal’s never out till the final move.
- Unstoppable After Losing Pieces: Winning every game after losing a piece? That’s tactical awareness on another level.
- Endurance Tester: Sometimes games drag on, but with an average 75+ moves in losses, it’s clear Harkamal fights to the last.
Opponent Chronicles
Among countless foes, some have tasted Harkamal’s wrath fully (100% win rate against mrpotterop, bigboi84, and several others), while a few have proven stubborn (looking at you, mayavimayur and prince_manu_ind1). Each match adds a new tale to this player’s evolving legend.
Timing & Performance
If you want to catch Harkamal on form, evenings might be less forgiving — with win rates dipping below 40% around 17-19h — but the early morning (especially 4-5 AM) sees a near-perfect 50% success rate. Clearly, Harkamal is a dawn warrior or, at least, an early bird on the chessboard.
In Summary
Harkamal Litt doesn’t just play chess; Harkamal wrestles with it, wrestles back, and occasionally wins that grueling bout with style. A devoted player with a heart full of tactical surprises and a mind ready to grind long endgames — beware all challengers, because every loss here comes with a promise: next time will be better, and the comeback is always real.
