Šarūnas Šulskis GM

Šarūnas Šulskis – The Lithuanian Grandmaster of the Chessboard

Šarūnas Šulskis, a name that resonates within the world of chess, proudly holds the esteemed title of Grandmaster awarded by FIDE. Known for his strategic prowess and unyielding endgame tenacity, Šarūnas combines deep tactical awareness with a calm psychological approach that keeps opponents on their toes.

With a peak blitz rating soaring to an impressive 2516 in early 2021, Šarūnas isn't just any player – he’s a relentless competitor with a flair for the fast-paced formats. Although bullet chess is often described as chaotic speed-mania, Šarūnas manages to maintain an exceptional bullet rating of 2500. Evidence enough that if chess were a sprint, he’d be the Usain Bolt of the 64 squares.

His playing style is a curious mix of patience and precision. An endgame specialist, Šarūnas goes the distance with an average of over 62 moves per win and is known for an astonishing 90% comeback rate after losing a piece — talk about turning lemons into checkmates! His psychological tilt factor is impressively low, demonstrating a steady mind even in the heat of fierce battles.

Despite his serious skills, Šarūnas isn't afraid of a challenge or a little humor. Facing opponents multiple times — especially his nemesis ltumatt whom he has played 10 times — he maintains an 80% win rate, proving he's the one getting checkmated less often (and probably chuckling quietly while planning his next attack).

Notably, his sharpest victories come on Fridays at 5 PM, when his win rate peaks at a dazzling 75%. Perhaps Fridays inspire him to channel his inner Grandmaster and give the weekend a running start.

Recent Battles and Anecdotes

The indomitable Šarūnas, also known by his username MargirisKaunas, recently won a thrilling game against Lekrum by resignation after a supreme display of tactical dominance. His signature opening strategies, shrouded under "Top Secret," yield a win rate over 60% in blitz and even more stunning results above 77% in bullet games.

Even Grandmasters falter sometimes—in one of his latest hard-fought clashes, Šarūnas suffered a loss to kevinas2005, showing that even chess legends must occasionally bow to fate (or a sneaky pawn push).

Whether he’s blazing through bullet games or grinding down opponents in lengthy endgames, Šarūnas Šulskis embodies the spirit of chess: a relentless passion for the game, a grandmaster’s intellect, and maybe, just maybe, a secret stash of winning moves wrapped up in Top Secret code.
