Евгений Марголин (lovelybit) - Chess Streamer Extraordinaire
Meet Евгений Марголин, better known in the chess world and streaming realms as lovelybit. A streamer who commands attention not only through his engaging personality but also by slinging pawns with surgical precision across the virtual board.
Евгений’s rapid rating achievements boast a peak of an impressive 2559, culminating in December 2021, with a near-perfect rapid win-loss record of 24 wins against a single loss. In blitz, he stormed past the 2600 mark with a peak 2657 in 2018, showcasing killer instincts in time-pressured environments. His bullet rating, too, peaked at a scorching 2637 in early 2019, proving he isn’t just a slow, strategic player but a quickfire tactician with nerves of steel.
Notably, Евгений has a streak worthy of legend: his longest winning streak clocks in at 34 games, and at the time of this writing, he’s riding a hot 5-game winning streak. Losses? Sure, but very rare and quickly forgotten.
