Okan Ozsakallioglu - International Master Extraordinaire
Meet Okan Ozsakallioglu, aka JustWatch000, a chess virtuoso who has earned the prestigious title of International Master from FIDE. With a mind as sharp as a well-honed bishop’s diagonal, Okan slices through the ranks with a bullet rating peaking at a whopping 2694, and a blitz peak that would make even Magnus Carlsen blink, touching 2869.
Born to calculate several moves ahead, Okan’s style is a fascinating blend of patience and tactical brilliance. A true connoisseur of endgames, Okan plays an average of 81 moves per win, proving that patience is indeed a virtue—unless there’s a quicker checkmate waiting.
Bullet chess? Okan’s got that covered with an impressive 52.39% win rate across 1153 games using a secret weapon opening (we're sworn to secrecy, but we suspect it involves a lot of poetic sacrifices and "wait-what-did-he-just-do?" moments). Blitz battles show Okan’s resilience, winning over 50% of the time amidst lightning-fast decisions.
A chess psychologist’s dream, Okan has a comeback rate near 88% when the odds look bleak, turning the tables with an uncanny knack for winning after losing a piece. But even superheroes face a Kryptonite: the tilt factor, sitting at a humble 10, reminds us that even titans can have a bad day.
Okan favors tactical fireworks and deep endgame strategy, demonstrating a consistent fighting spirit and refusing early resignations (#NeverGiveUp). The peak blitz rating in April 2020 and a rapid peak soaring past 2750 in October 2023 underscore the dedication and continual growth of this chess maestro.
