Madhusudan P. (madadv) - The Relentless Blitz Battler

Meet Madhusudan P., known in online chess realms as madadv, a player whose journey through the 64 squares resembles an epic saga punctuated by fierce battles, tactical comebacks, and the occasional “oops!” moment. Madhusudan's chess career is a compelling blend of determination and humor—he's the kind of player who might lose a piece but won't lose hope, boasting a comeback rate of nearly 80%! Talk about bouncing back stronger than a knight jumping to unexpected squares.

Rating Rollercoaster & Stats

Madhusudan's peak blitz rating was a respectable 1017 in mid-2022, with rapid and bullet peaks just behind in the low 1000s. These ratings might not place him in the grandmaster hall of fame (yet), but his enduring passion is evident in over 3,000 blitz games played, where he maintains a solid win rate of ~48%. An equal number of wins and losses, sprinkled with draws, paint the picture of a gritty player who embraces every challenge.

His preferred battleground? Blitz chess, where rapid time controls keep madness at bay and adrenaline at max. Madhusudan has a particular fondness for the "Top Secret" opening—no, not actually top secret, but it’s his weapon of choice with an appreciable 48% win rate. Also notable are his adventures playing rarer openings like the Queen's Pawn Opening Horwitz Defense and even the Englund Gambit, showing he's willing to spice things up and keep his opponents on their toes.

Playing Style & Psychological Quirks

Known for a modest early resignation rate (3.6%), Madhusudan prefers to wrestle with endgames—he reaches them in nearly 60% of his matches. Average moves per win hover around 60, revealing patience amid the blitz chaos. Interestingly, he performs a bit better when playing with the white pieces (49.6%) than black (45.4%), but who doesn't enjoy a little extra push from the first move advantage?

When the chips are down, expect madadv to fight back: his win rate after losing a piece is a strong 44.65%. Although the tilt factor is 9 (anyone can have bad days), his best times seem to be in the wee hours (around 5 AM) — maybe that’s when his brain grease really kicks in.

Memorable Moments & Most Recent Triumphs

Madhusudan's latest win was a briskly played game on May 24, 2025, where he employed the Queen's Pawn Opening Horwitz Defense to checkmate his opponent after 36 moves. A strategic slugfest that ended in resignation, proving that madadv can mix slow burns with lightning strikes.

Of course, no chess story is complete without losses, and Madhusudan faced defeat the same day against Andorex13 using the less-traveled Indian Game Fantasy Variation. But true to his fighting spirit, these setbacks only fuel his next daring conquest.

Opponent Rapport

In the world of chess, every rival shapes a player’s growth. Madhusudan's record includes amusing rivalries and underdog victories, boasting 100% win rates against some (darkychessss, phoenixflower5843) and a few tricky opponents who keep him on his toes. His most frequent opponents, like tmj1063 and kagii113, know him well enough to expect a rollercoaster of moves.

In a Nutshell

Madhusudan P. is a quintessential blitz enthusiast, armed with a versatile opening repertoire and a warrior’s heart. His chess journey is a testament to persistence, willingness to experiment, and a sense of humor when the pawns start losing their heads. Whether he’s brewing a comeback or blundering a piece in spectacular fashion, madadv’s game is always worth watching—and maybe even learning from (or laughing with).
