Hulki Sivas: The Tactical Tornado

Meet Hulki Sivas, or as the internet savvy call him, Hulkisivas, a bullet-speed chess enthusiast who has mastered the art of quick decisions and occasionally questionable blunders. With a peak bullet rating of 492 achieved in May 2025, Hulki races through his games with the tactical awareness of a hawk and the resilience of a rubber ball, boasting a remarkable comeback rate of 68.74%. When life chips away a piece, he fights back fiercely, winning over 43% of such uphill battles.

Playing Style & Stats

Known for an endgame frequency of 44.27%, Hulki loves to drag his opponents into the trenches for a prolonged duel. His games are no walk in the park, lasting ~44 moves on wins and stretching to ~54 moves on losses—clearly, he’s in for the long haul. A tiny early resignation rate (~2.8%) shows he rarely throws in the towel early, even if the position looks grim.

His win rates slightly favor playing White (51.88%) over Black (47.27%), perhaps because he believes the first move is like an espresso shot — it kicks things off with an energy boost.

Opening Repertoire & Favorite Battles

Hulki’s opening repertoire is versatile but leans towards aggressive and sharp lines:

• King’s Pawn Opening—His bread and butter: played nearly 380 bullet games with a solid 57% win rate.
• Van 't Kruijs Opening—Surprisingly effective with a 57% win rate in bullet and even better rapid results.
• French Defense and Sicilian Defense—trusted shields in the chaotic battles of fast chess.

Time Preferences

Hulki is a morning person in the chess world—his best time to play is around 5:00 AM, when his mind is fresh and opponents likely sleepy. He enjoys a decent win rate above 50% between 9 AM and 4 PM, proving he's sharpest before the afternoon siesta kicks in. But don't challenge him at 6 or 5 AM unless you're ready for a surprise blitz storm!

Memorable Matches

Hulki's recent victories have been nothing short of cinematic—his latest win was a dazzling checkmate delivered against shaikhbrossy in bullet on June 3, 2025, showcasing his ability to finish games with flair and sometimes a queen sacrifice or two. Conversely, occasional time trouble has been his nemesis, contributing to some tough losses (and maybe just a little keyboard smashing, who can say?).

Psychological Profile: The Tilt-Fighter

With a tilt factor of 9, Hulki knows the pain of losing streaks but bounces back with impressive tenacity, sporting an 8-game winning streak at his best. When the chips are down, he does not surrender easily—his resilience is the stuff of legends. He has a healthy respect for opponents and a special knack for crushing newbies (much to their dismay).

In summary: Hulki Sivas might not leave you speechless with a grandmaster title (yet), but his daring style, fighting spirit, and ability to conjure wins from the jaws of defeat make him a player to watch and enjoy. Just remember: if you face Hulkisivas before dawn, bring your best moves and a coffee.
