• With over 6,200 rapid games under his belt and a positive win-loss record, Manav shows his mettle moving at lightning speed in blitz and bullet formats, though sometimes bullet games feel like a game of "chess or chaos."

Playing Style & Psychology

Manav's style is a fantastic blend of patience and audacity. His average moves per win hover around 59, proving that he likes to outthink rather than outblitz. Yet, don't let the numbers fool you — his comeback rate of 80.85% shows that even when storms of chaos strike, Manav bounces back like a chess phoenix rising from the smoke of blunders.

Psychological and tactical trends reveal a player who sometimes tilts (but hey, who doesn’t?), with a tilt factor of 14 — which might explain why at 11 PM (his best time to play), he either delivers checkmate or theatrical resignations.

Favorite Openings & Strategies

Manav has a soft spot for classic lines, especially the Queen's Gambit Accepted Old Variation, where he secures roughly 58% wins in rapid and bullet time controls. He’s also an adventurous spirit dipping into the Indian Game and Sicilian Defense, occasionally throwing in the Englund Gambit just to keep opponents guessing — and sometimes scratching their heads.

Recent Battles

Notable recent victories include a sharp tactical win against Niyazchess14, where Manav patiently dismantled defenses and transformed his bishop and rook into a deadly hammer. Yet, against IExlegeek, the tables turned in a Sicilian duel, reminding us that even warriors have off days or meet an unexpected knight fork.

Fun Facts & Trivia

• His current winning streak is a modest 2 games, but his longest unbeaten run is a staggering 15!
• Manav plays best at night — especially around 11 PM, proving caffeine and chess might just be the ultimate combo.
• He once won a bullet game by resignation. Because really, who wants to drag out a 1-minute marathon?
