Kristina S. - The Queen of the Board
Known online as kr1stinaS, Kristina S. is a formidable chess player who dances gracefully through bullets, blitzes, and rapids alike, leaving opponents wondering if they ever really had a chance.
A Journey Through the Ratings
Kristina burst onto the chess scene with a modest daily rating around 1150 back in 2018, but quickly proved that slow and steady isn’t always the way to go. By 2024, she had sharpened her bullet skills to a peak rating of 1735 and blitz mastery nearing 1839. But her true weapon?

With an average game length of around 65 moves for both wins and losses, Kristina clearly loves to stretch battles into thrilling endgames. She’s a comeback queen with a 73% comeback rate after being behind — a perfect blend of resilience and tactical wizardry. Her games are peppered with sharp, Top Secret openings that keep her rivals guessing (and often second-guessing!).
Record & Rivalries
With over 62 wins in bullet games and 173 wins in blitz alone, Kristina’s scoreboard speaks for itself. She boasts impressive win rates against well-known opponents like jaspierre (78%) and even manages to hold her own against the tricky sashas617 (60%). Yet, don’t let these stats fool you — even the best have their nemeses.
Personality & Playtime
Known for a quirky tilt factor of just 9, Kristina remains cool-headed, even when the pressure mounts. Her secret weapon? Playing at midnight, where she hits an incredible 100% win rate between 0 and 1 am. Clearly, when the clock strikes twelve, the chessboard becomes her kingdom.
Memorable Moment
One of Kristina’s most spectacular recent victories came with a checkmate executed in a rapid-fire bullet game against Becksi855 in June 2024, showcasing her tactical dominance and cool nerves under time pressure.
