Julia Elizabeth Sloan - Woman FIDE Master & Chess Enthusiast
Meet Julia Elizabeth Sloan, proudly holding the prestigious title of Woman FIDE Master. Not just content with a single title, Julia's chess journey reads like an epic saga, marked by intense battles on all fronts: Daily, Blitz, Bullet, and Rapid chess.
Starting from a modest Daily rating of 1200 in 2017, Julia swiftly reached a peak of 1854 by 2021, proving that she’s not just a casual player but a warrior on the 64 squares. Her Blitz skills? Oh, they’re nothing short of lightning-fast with ratings soaring above 2100 for several years, peaking near the 2170 mark — a true bulletstorm on the board!
Julia’s rapid improvement over the years is complemented by a fierce competitive spirit that shines through her longest winning streak of 17 games. Fair warning to her opponents: the comeback rate is an astounding 88.47%, and if she loses a piece, expect her to win 100% of the time afterward — resilience and grit, all in one package.
When it comes to playing style, Julia has mastered the art of patience, averaging nearly 70 moves per win and never shying away from the endgame, which she frequents with remarkable dedication (72.85% of her games push into the late stages). Don’t be surprised if you find yourself outmaneuvered in a marathon match lasting several hours—she’s comfortable deep in the battlefield.
Off the board, Julia’s chess chronicles include thousands of games—with her blitz wins totaling nearly 3,000 and bullet victories exceeding 3,300. She’s also notoriously unpredictable, alternating between beating her most-played opponents and ending some matches with a surprising half-point or even a complete shutout!
As anyone who’s faced Julia knows, whether you find yourself playing blitz at midnight or daily games during a lazy afternoon, Julia Elizabeth Sloan is a chess player with an iron will—and probably a sly grin after snatching your queen.
