Nana Dzagnidze (aka lili_ani)

Grandmaster of the 64 Squares

Nana Dzagnidze is a formidable Grandmaster recognized by FIDE, whose chess career resembles a brilliant symphony of tactical gambits, strategic endgames, and occasional daring blunders that keep her opponents guessing (and sometimes laughing). Known online as lili_ani, Nana blends grit with grace – proving that queens don’t just rule the board; they rule the game.

Rating and Style

She peaked impressively with a bullet rating soaring to 2831 in April 2020, and a blitz best of 2742 in May 2022 – numbers that make even chess engines blink twice. Her rapid peak rating hit a solid 2515, while daily games show she’s no stranger to casual chess bouts either.

Despite the fierce competition (and numerous ticking clocks), Nana has carved out an 86% comeback rate after losing material — a testament to her relentless fighting spirit. Her games average around 78 moves when she wins, suggesting not only a tactical edge but stamina fit for marathon battles.

Playing Personality

Nana’s psychological profile tells the tale of a fighter with a modest tilt factor of 9 (chess players understand – that’s basically “I just spilled coffee on my opening” level) and a penchant for playing best during the calm hours of early morning around 2:00 AM. Night owls and early risers, take note!

Her strokes of genius often shine brightest on Thursdays and Tuesdays, with win rates flirting just below 50%, while her moves between 9 AM and 2 PM keep her win chances near or above the 50% mark. Clearly, Nana knows when to strike – with perfect timing and a cheeky grin.

Recent Adventures on the Board

Nana's well-honed blitz skills recently demonstrated clinical precision, delivering checkmates with artistic flair — such as the game on February 25, 2025, where she navigated the Sicilian Defense (Sokolsky Variation) with the stealth of a chess ninja and checkmated an opponent flawlessly.

Fun Facts

  • Her longest winning streak sits proudly at 11 games – almost a full grandmaster’s feast of victories without a hiccup.
  • She has a remarkable record against numerous opponents, including a perfect 100% win rate against several usernames, proving that some players must dread seeing her name pop up!
  • If you’re playing Nana and ‘resignation’ is your preferred exit, be warned: she clinches nearly two-thirds of her wins this way. Don’t give up too early!

In Summary

Nana Dzagnidze is like the chessboard’s secret weapon – relentless, unpredictable, and cunningly creative. Whether blitzing through middle games or grinding in endgames, she turns every match into a dramatic tale of strategy, passion, and just a pinch of cheek.

Keep an eye on lili_ani — her moves weave stories, and every game is a page-turner!
