Meera Sai: The Woman International Master with a Tactical Flair
Meet Meera Sai, a chess player who could probably checkmate you before your morning coffee – and then explain why your king's position was the weakest link on the board. Holding the prestigious title of Woman International Master from FIDE, Meera has proven to be a formidable opponent across multiple time controls.
Rating Highlights & Playing Style
With a peak blitz rating soaring at an impressive 2370 (achieved as recently as February 2023) and a bullet maximum of 2120, Meera’s rapid improvement and adaptability are evident. Her rapid rating peaked at 1762 back in 2013, demonstrating her solid foundation even in slower games. Known for her resilience and tactical awareness, she boasts an extraordinary comeback rate of over 86%, proving she never gives up—even when a piece goes missing!
Meera knows how to keep her cool under pressure, rarely resigning early (a mere 1.18% early resignation rate), and loves diving deep into endgames — playing them in nearly 90% of her games. With an average of 75 moves per win, Meera battles long and hard, making sure every piece earns its keep.
The Stats that Tell Tales
- Bullet record: 88 wins, 69 losses, 14 draws
- Blitz record: 20 wins, 15 losses, 1 draw
- Rapid record: 5 wins, 1 loss — only one loss? Someone's been paying attention!
Her win rate is especially strong when facing opponents rated below her, where she takes 65% of games; when the chips are down against stronger or equal opponents, well, let's just say Meera enjoys a good challenge.
Signature Moves & Opponents
While a bit of a mystery surrounds her opening choices (all top-secret!), Meera’s record speaks: a healthy 55.56% win rate in blitz and over 51% in bullet. Her most-played opponents include smbataghekyan and uncle_mish, against whom she has some spicy rivalries—with an 83% win rate against the former. She has a habit of totally outclassing players like Lady_Nika and cheray-22 with a perfect 100% win rate, though a few like rakshi2005 seem to have her number (0% win rate there).
Memorable Moments
On February 21, 2023, Meera clinched a brilliant blitz victory against salomez, winning on time in a tense queen's pawn opening full of tactical twists. Victory never felt so sweet (or so time-sensitive)! And just moments before that, she defeated Lady_Nika by resignation after orchestrating a crushing middle game assault.
When Does Meera Shine?
Apparently, the early bird does catch the worm—Meera’s best time of day is 2 AM, which probably explains her sharp instincts and impressive 60% win rate around 10 AM to 11 AM, possibly from dreams of tactical combos or grandmaster glory.
Off the Board
Humor aside, Meera Sai embodies the spirit of persistence, strategic depth, and a readiness to battle at every stage of the game—whether blitz, rapid, or bullet. Whether she’s analyzing something "top secret" or crushing an unsuspecting opponent, she remains a rising star on the chessboard, ready to conquer her next challenge.
So, if you ever face Meera on the board, don’t underestimate the power of those moves coming from the username meeraa77. And remember: she might be plotting her next dazzling comeback while you're still figuring out which pawn to push.
