Chess Journey & Style

Алексей's playing style combines sharp tactical awareness with a stubborn refusal to give up.

Ratings & Performance

Over the years, Алексей's Blitz rating soared to peaks above 2200, with a recent climb near 1812 (2025 projections). Bullet ratings peak around 2100+ in prior years, though recent challenges show a dip to the ~1700 range — everyone has their off days or months!

The Daily rating is a humble 400 (probably a test account or a fresh start), but who needs slow games when you can blitz and bullet-laser opponents with lightning speed?
