Victor Bologan: The Grandmaster Mind
Victor Bologan isn’t just a name on the chessboard; he’s a chess tornado wrapped in a grandmaster’s robe. Awarded the prestigious Grandmaster title by FIDE, Victor has blitzed his way through thousands of games with a style sharp enough to slice through even the toughest defenses.
Rating Rollercoaster & Achievements
From modest beginnings, Victor’s Blitz rating soared like a rook on an open file, peaking at a staggering 2965 in May 2025 – basically the chess equivalent of reaching the moon and back. His Bullet peak wasn’t shabby either, hitting the impressive mark of 2670, while in Rapid, he hit a solid high of 2581.
Playing Style & Arsenal
Masters take note: Victor loves a long fight with an average of 75 moves per win and a penchant for endgames (appearing in over 85% of his games!). He’s got a respectable come back rate of nearly 87% – so don’t count him out even if he loses a piece, because his chances of turning the tide after losing a piece is a cool 44.61%.
His opening choices are as diverse as a buffet: from the mysterious “Top Secret” to reliable classics like the Pirc Defense and Sicilian Defense French Variation, Victor keeps opponents on their toes. His favored arenas seem to be in Blitz, wildly competitive but clearly his playground.
Stats With a Smile
Victor’s track record in Blitz matches reads like a tennis score with all those wins, losses, and draws – roughly 3,729 wins to 3,958 losses, plus a few stubborn draws. He’s not afraid to resign early when the tide is against him (with an early resignation rate of 0.43), but he prefers to grind through endgames where his tactical wizardry shines.
Oh, and his best time to play? 6 AM sharp – the perfect hour for checkmates before breakfast!

Off the Board
Whether he’s studying openings, plotting endgames, or just pondering why pawns run so slowly, Victor’s passion for chess is infectious. Friendly yet fiercely competitive, he proves that being a grandmaster isn’t just about the numbers – it’s about style, endurance, and a touch of chessboard charisma.
