Kondylev: The Grandmaster of Guile and Grit

Meet Kondylev, a chess virtuoso crowned Grandmaster by FIDE, whose moves are as calculated as a Swiss watch but twice as surprising. This player is not just about lofty titles—Kondylev melds speed, precision, and a dash of tactical wizardry that keeps opponents on their toes and spectators on the edge of their seats.

Rating Rollercoaster & Style

From the lightning-fast bullet games where Kondylev has rocketed to a peak rating of a scorching 2481, to blitz battles that saw them breach a staggering 2867, this grandmaster thrills under pressure. Daily and rapid ratings are no less impressive, with perfect win records in rapid and flawless victory streaks in daily chess. Known for a formidable endgame presence, Kondylev averages over 64 moves per win—because why rush perfection?

Winning Streaks That Could Rival a Netflix Series

Kondylev's longest winning streak stands tall at 27 games, and currently boasts a 19-game streak. That's not just consistency, that's legendary gluing of chess pieces to victory. Losing? Barely a blip with a maximum losing streak of 5, proving that adversity only sharpens this player's resolve.

Opening Acts: Top Secret and Deadly

If openings were spy missions, Kondylev’s would be classified. Their 'Top Secret' opening strategy is backed by fierce success: an awe-inspiring 80% win rate in bullet games and nearly 67% in blitz. Opponents beware—the game rarely lasts long before the secret sauce reveals itself in decisive victories.

Tactical Temperament & Psychological Prowess

Known for a comeback rate of nearly 82%, Kondylev thrives in chaotic positions, turning lost pieces and precarious positions into opportunities. Their tilt factor is impressively low at 5, signaling a Zen-like calm under attack. Peak performance suits the late afternoon, with 16:00 being prime time to watch this mastermind at work.

Rivalries & Records

Played anthonywirig 41 times with a notable 61% win rate. Against the chess world's frequent faces, Kondylev sports nearly perfect records, including a 100% win rate against multiple opponents—clearly, this grandmaster handles pressure like a pro and defeats like a champion.

A Memorable Recent Game

In early 2019, Kondylev showcased their strategic depth in a rapid duel against pizzaboy123, clinching victory by resignation after a fierce Sicilian Defense battle. The game was a dazzling display of patience, precision, and the relentless pursuit of checkmate.
You can relive the drama here.

Fun Fact

With a bullet win rate comfortably over 80% utilizing secret openings, Kondylev is like the chess equivalent of a ninja—stealthy, deadly, and impossible to predict. Opponents might as well bring a smoke bomb!

In the grand theater of chess, Kondylev is not merely a player — they are the headline act, delivering performances that combine style, substance, and just enough mystery to keep everyone guessing.

What you already do well

  1. Dynamic openings – You willingly enter sharp Sicilian and King’s Indian structures and generally seize the initiative early (e.g. 14…fxg4! in your 04 Jan 2019 win).
  2. Tactical alertness – Good eye for intermediate moves such as 21…Bxf6 neutralising White’s attack in that same game.
  3. Space-gaining pawn thrusts – Consistent use of …a5/…a4 or …f5 to create pawn levers and open files for rooks.

Main improvement targets

  1. Clock management
    Two of your recent losses were on time while still defensible. Adopt a “red-zone” rule: under 1 minute, play solely from pre-set candidate lists (checks, captures, threats) and trust your intuition.
  2. End-game conversion
    Rook endings in both wins and losses show shaky technique. Set a weekly goal to rehearse Philidor, Lucena and Vancura positions; 10 minutes/day with a board or engine drill suffices.
  3. Critical theory gaps in the Accelerated Dragon
    The miniature after 11.Nb5 illustrates the danger of relying on general schemes without concrete knowledge.
    Key line to memorise:

    Instead, prefer 11…d6! or even 11…0-0-0 followed by …Kb8 and …Qc8.

Action plan

  • Daily: 20 puzzles at your performance peak + review one instructive rook ending.
  • Every 3 days: play a 15 | 10 rapid game focusing on time discipline; annotate immediately.
  • Weekly: pick one master Accelerated Dragon game and summarise three thematic ideas (…d5 break, exchange sac on c3, minority attack with …b5).

Milestones

  • Two weeks: zero time losses in 3-min pool.
  • One month: ≥ 60 % score with Black in Maroczy Bind setups.
  • Quarter-year: surpass current peak by +50 Rapid points.

Keep nurturing your creative style. With firmer end-game fundamentals and stricter clock control, you are well on your way to the next rating jump. Good luck!
