Александр Морозевич – The Blitz Grandmaster

Meet Александр Морозевич, aka Quaternitychess on the digital battlefield, a chess Grandmaster with a lightning-fast blitz game that could make even the most seasoned opponents sweat bullets. Holding the prestigious Grandmaster title from FIDE, Александр doesn’t just play chess—he practically turns it into a high-speed spectacle of strategy and tactics.

Career Highlights & Stats

  • Peak blitz rating: A staggering 2826 (June 2020), because why settle for anything less?
  • Longest winning streak: 27 consecutive wins. That’s more like a chess marathon, except it’s done at blitz speed!
  • Blitz record: 72 wins, 21 losses, and 7 draws. Spoiler alert: draws are about as rare in Александр's games as a peaceful traffic jam.
  • Favorite time to dominate: Especially deadly around 17:00 to 19:00 hours, when his win rate soars above 78%.

Style of Play

Don’t blink, or Александр might just outmaneuver you before you realize what happened! His games average about 57 moves for wins and a similar count for losses, proving he’s not just a sprinter but also a marathoner — a tactician who loves the endgame, appearing in roughly two-thirds of his matches. And while he sometimes shows a quirky habit of resigning early (about 33% of the time), that's probably just his way of saving energy for his next blitz cannonball.

Notable Facts & Fun Bits

  • Known for a comeback rate topping 70%, Александр is the master of turning the tables when the going looks tough.
  • He boasts a perfect 100% win rate against many opponents — including “paralinch” and “koksik_13” — proving some players learn the hard way not to mess with him.
  • His psychological resilience is solid with a low tilt factor of 4, so he keeps his nerves steady even when the clock is ticking down.
  • He occasionally loses streaks can go up to 4 games, but hey, even champions have off days.

Recent Triumph

On June 2, 2020, Александр sealed a win against AliKa2810 in a thrilling Four Knights Game, demonstrating his ability to outwit and outpace simultaneously — winning on time with a combination of sharp strategy and rapid execution.

Whether it's a sharp Sicilian Najdorf or the tricky Caro-Kann Defense, Александр plays with fearless curiosity and precision, proving every day that blitz is his kingdom.

In a Nutshell

Александр Морозевич is the kind of chess Grandmaster who makes you feel like you arrived late to a genius show — just before he pulls off a brilliancy that leaves the audience gasping. If speed, strategy, and smiles on the chessboard were Olympic sports, he'd be wearing gold, silver, and bronze. Watch his games and learn: blitz isn’t just fast; it’s an art form, and Александр is Picasso.
