Rating Journey

Playing Style & Psychological Insights
Михайло is no stranger to long fights on the board, averaging around 47 moves per win, with a slightly shorter game length in losses. His games show a flair for comebacks—winning over half the time after a rocky start (53.69% comeback rate).
Known to take an early bow 10.51% of the time (early resignation), which is either tactical humility or a dramatic flair—judges are still debating.
White pieces seem to bless Михайло a bit more, boasting a 50.77% win rate, while Black is slightly more challenging at 44.6%. Probably because the pawns on the black side throw spontaneous parties.
Though occasionally susceptible to the 'tilt' (a tilt factor of 16), Михайло manages psychological warfare with a sturdy mindset, balancing rated and casual victories efficiently.
Opening Secrets & Streaks
All about that "Top Secret" opening! With over 15,000 rapid games, Михайло’s preferred opening might just be classified, or perhaps it’s a coded invitation to confusion.
His longest winning streak stands at an impressive 13 games, and he's currently riding a winning streak—one game at a time, because who likes jinxing themselves?
Community & Opponents
Our player has tangled most often (and repeatedly) with opponents like rezhali2008 and vyacheslavborshch, with mixed results—some wins, some losses, plenty of draws, and definitely a few heated post-game debates.
Recent battles feature fierce matches against istvan2322, aleksanderalim, and gg202510, ensuring no game is ever dull.
Fun Facts
- Win rate after losing a piece: a perfect 100%! Михайло could teach a thing or two about resilience.
- Fastest wins and losses average nearly the same number of moves, because every game tells a story.
- Likes to play most actively on Mondays and Sundays, perhaps recharging strategic batteries over the weekend.
- Not afraid to quit early... occasionally. Maybe he’s just fashionably late in conceding defeat.
In summary, Михайло Цізар is a steadfast chess warrior whose love for the game shines through each move—whether it’s speeding through lightning bullet games, engaging in marathon rapid battles, or patiently plotting in daily chess. A true player who knows that the game is as much about persistence and psychology as about pieces on a board.
