About Janardhan Morla
Janardhan Morla, known to opponents and fans alike simply as janardhanmorla, is a chess adventurer navigating the fascinating labyrinths of Rapid, Blitz, and Bullet chess. With a peak Rapid rating of 1027 back in December 2019, he once reached the dizzying heights of nearly 1000+ in Blitz and Bullet formats too—proof that he’s a force to be reckoned with, at least until the next coffee break!
Playing Style & Personality
Janardhan’s game speaks volumes: he averages around 47 moves per win and doesn’t shy away from engaging tactical battles, boasting a remarkable 66.5% comeback rate—which means giving up a piece doesn’t scare him, it just spices up the game! His early resignation rate is modest (16.27%), indicating he’s no quitter, though even he has that occasional “oops” moment. His wins by checkmate suggest he enjoys that satisfying snap of victory, while his losses by resignation remind us he’s only human.
With a tilt factor of 17, Janardhan keeps his cool reasonably well, although any chess player would admit some games might tweak the nerves. Fun fact: his best time to play is at 9 PM – clearly, the perfect hour for unleashing strategic genius or creative mayhem.
Favorite Openings & Performance
Queens Pawn Opening is Janardhan’s playground with over 640 Rapid games, winning almost 47% of those—plus he’s quite fond of the Mikenas Defense, where he has a winning edge. Other favored openings include the Kings Pawn (50.5% win rate in Rapid) and the intriguingly named Englund Gambit, which strangely manages a respectable 55.77% win rate for him. Clearly, Janardhan likes to mix classical due diligence with some daring gambits when the mood strikes.
Recent Highlights
Notably, on June 6th, 2025, Janardhan secured a triumphant victory by checkmate against l3aytouch in a Rapid game, dazzling with sharp play and a queen’s gambit finale. You can imagine the satisfying feeling of delivering Qxf7# and hearing the crowd go wild (or at least the chess clocks ticking in approval).
Despite a few setbacks, like a tough game against tented03 recently, Janardhan’s chess journey exemplifies persistence, learning, and a touch of playful unpredictability.

Snapshot
- Peak Rapid so far: 1027 (2019-12-26)
- Favourite move:
Qh5+appeared in 4 of your last 10 games! - Activity:
What you’re already doing well
- Tactical alertness. In the win against
l3aytouchyou spotted24.Bxf7+and the follow-up sacrifice to drag Black’s king to f7 before mating. Nice calculation! tactical motif practice clearly pays off. - Open-line intuition. You often double rooks or slide them to the seventh rank once files open (
Rxa7 / Rc7+in the same game). That’s an attacking skill worth keeping.
Biggest gains for the next month
-
Curb the “early-queen syndrome”.
• In every recent loss your queen jumped out before minor pieces were developed (4.Qh5+vstented03,3.Qa4+vsaghamo1).
• Early queen checks work at 400, but stronger players punish them with tempi and forks.
Practice target: During the first 8 moves, do not move the queen unless it wins material immediately. -
Develop, then attack.
Use the “2-4-0 rule”: 2 central pawns, 4 minor pieces, then 0 king in the centre (castle). In the lost game vsaghamo1you playedf3,f4,g4before castling and the centre collapsed. -
King safety first.
• Your king was still on e1/e2 in 6 of the last 10 games.
• Castling early stops cheap mates and lets your rooks connect sooner. -
Trim the edge-pawn habit.
Moves likea4,h4on move 2 waste time unless part of a clear plan. Replace them with centre control moves (d4,e4,c4,Nf3,Nc3). -
Build a small opening kit.
• As White: try the Italian Game (e4, Nf3, Bc4) or the London System (d4, Nf3, Bf4).
• As Black: vse4learn the Scandinavian (1…d5), vsd4learn the Queen’s Gambit Declined setup (d5, e6, Nf6, Be7).
Fewer openings ⇒ more depth.
