Ilgar Bajarani - The International Master with a Tactical Flair
Known on the chessboard as maestro99az, Ilgar Bajarani is an International Master who has proven time and again that chess is both an art and a battlefield—and he’s a true warrior of its 64 squares.
Starting from modest blitz ratings around 1331 in 2013, Ilgar has rocketed to an impressive peak of 2562 Blitz rating by 2023-2025, showcasing a dedication to rapid-fire chess that few can match. His bullet chess may not have hit the topmost heights, but with a blazing 74% win rate in bullet games and an unyielding comeback rate of over 91%, he’s the player who laughs in the face of defeat—then comes back stronger.
Ilgar's style? Quite the mix of psychological resilience and strategic insight. With an astonishing 100% win rate after losing a piece, he turns adversity into opportunity, leaving opponents scratching their heads and wondering if they were playing chess or a magic trick.
His games are notably lengthy in moves (averaging around 78 moves per win), a testament to his deep understanding and love for gritty endgames, which he frequents more than 84% of the time. When given the white pieces, Ilgar strikes with a solid 54% win rate, but don't be fooled—his black pieces deliver victory over half the time as well.
With a tilted "Tilt Factor" barely scraping 10% and an average game-wit that rarely resigns early, Ilgar is a tough nut to crack—and with a longest winning streak of 25 games, he can steamroll through even the most prepared contenders.
When not busy breaking down defenses or baffling enemies with his top-secret opening repertoire, Ilgar enjoys challenging friends and foes alike, maintaining a balanced win-loss record across thousands of games. From casual bullets to rapid-fire blitz duels, maestro99az is a name that lights up leaderboards and chatrooms alike.
In short, Ilgar Bajarani is proof that determination, tactical genius, and a dash of resilience create a chess player you want to bet on—and perhaps be wary of facing.
