Mohana Krishnan (aka Mohan2244)
Meet Mohana Krishnan, a chess warrior navigating the 64 squares with a blend of strategic grit and the occasional dash of chaos. Known online as Mohan2244, this player’s journey is as colorful as their blitz rating swings—sometimes soaring to a peak of 435 in blitz and touching a solid 451 in rapid chess, proving they can hang with the big dogs when the pressure’s on.
Playing Style & Personality
Mohana's style? Well, it’s a cocktail of tenacity and a sprinkle of early resignation to save precious brain cells. With an Early Resignation Rate of nearly 22%, apparently, it’s not just about fighting hard but also knowing when to fold 'em—smart move in the fast-paced blitz battlefield! But don't mistake that for giving up easily; their Comeback Rate is a solid 73%, showing they love a good underdog story.
Tactical Prowess and Psychological Trends
Mohan’s games often read like thriller novels. They pull off comebacks with a nearly 50% win rate even after losing a piece. The darker hours suit them best: their best time to play is midnight, hitting a dazzling 62.63% win rate at 0:00 hours—night owl alert! Their Tilt Factor of 13 indicates a calm demeanor under fire, so opponents beware: this player bounces back better than a chessboard rubber ball.
Favorite Openings and Battlefields
The Scandinavian Defense holds a special place in Mohan's arsenal, with over 1195 blitz games played. It's a love-hate relationship—a nearly 50% win rate but plenty of battles waged on its chaotic battlegrounds. Alongside that, the King's Pawn Opening and Center Game are frequent choices, highlighting a preference for classical, tested lines peppered with tactical skirmishes.
Stats Snapshot
- Blitz: 3,053 wins vs. 3,071 losses, with 173 draws
- Rapid: Modest but promising 25 wins against 33 losses
- Bullet: A modest 16 wins and 25 losses, perhaps because blitz frenzy is the real stage!
- Average moves per win hover around 53 moves—a marathoner, not a sprinter
- Known to have streaks: 13 wins in a row (yes, really!) but also a 13-game losing streak, proving chess life is a rollercoaster
Recent Memorable Moments
Just recently on June 2, 2025, Mohan secured a sharp win by resignation in a King's Pawn Opening battle against xo_mikey.
