Maxim Lugovskoy: The Grandmaster of the Blitz Realm

Maxim Lugovskoy, also known online as Koksik_13, is a cunning chess Grandmaster who seems to bend time itself during blitz and bullet games. With a FIDE title of Grandmaster, Maxim's rapid-fire style and tactical wizardry have made him a formidable opponent on the virtual boards.

Beginning with a modest blitz rating just shy of 1700 in 2016, Maxim skyrocketed to an impressive peak of 2802 by 2022. Such a meteoric rise is reminiscent of a chess rocket, fueled by countless games and relentless dedication. If lightning had a chess rating, it would likely be close to Maxim’s bullet max rating of 2744 — a speed demon among pawns and knights.

With over 1,900 blitz wins and nearly a thousand bullet victories under his belt, Maxim has played more rapid and daily games too, though blitz and bullet are clearly where he shines brightest. His extraordinarily high win rate after losing a piece - a staggering 98.73% - makes one wonder if Maxim secretly owns a time-turner or maybe just sees the chessboard in a way mere mortals can't.

Maxim’s games are known for their length and complexity, averaging over 84 moves even in wins and losses, showing that despite his blitz glory, he’s all for the deep strategic battles, not just quick tactical skirmishes. And speaking of skirmishes, his longest winning streak once hit 19 games straight — an epic run that surely had his opponents biting their nails.

Psychologically, Maxim is a cool cucumber - his tilt factor is low, but like any mortal, even he can feel the sting of an unexpected blunder. However, his comeback rate of 92% proves that he’s the kind who dusts off a loss and jumps right back into the fray with an even sharper mind.

In short, whether he’s facing down a bullet game in the dead of night or a blitz storm at prime hour, Maxim Lugovskoy embodies the spirit of a Grandmaster who loves the thrill of battle, the beauty of chess, and maybe, just maybe, has a secret stash of coffee fueling those late-night victories.
