About Ragupathi15

Meet Ragupathi15, a chess adventurer whose rating journey reads like a rollercoaster with a healthy dose of adrenaline and maybe a sprinkle of “Oops, not that move!” Starting from humble beginnings under 400 in rapid chess back in 2019, this relentless player steadily climbed the ladder to reach a peak rapid rating of 1104 by the end of 2023.

In blitz, Ragupathi15 showed a flash of brilliance, peaking at 969 in mid-2020, while bullet chess was more of a wild ride with a peak of 685 in early 2023. Daily games reveal a steady and impressive rise, boasting a peak of 1167 in March 2023 — truly a reflection of patience in the slow lane (although patience is relative when you're also blitzing bullets!).

Playing Style & Personality

Known for an endgame frequency hovering around 45%, Ragupathi15 clearly enjoys the long battles where pawns dance and knights prance. Not one to quit early, the early resignation rate is just about 7.4%, proving the stubborn will to fight until that sweet checkmate... or timeout. With an average game length close to 48 moves, this player is the walking embodiment of "slow and steady" — wishing the tortoise had a chessboard!

Speaking of timing, 22:00 is Ragupathi15’s prime time to outwit opponents, a mysterious hour where the brain fuels up on strategy and perhaps some midnight snacks. Tuesdays and Mondays are lucky with win rates just north of 50%, but don't let that fool you into thinking Ragupathi15 takes the rest of the week off — every day sees some serious board battles.

Tactical Brilliance & Psychological Fortitude

Ragupathi15 is a formidable comeback master with a 63.1% comeback rate, clawing back from unfavorable positions like a chess Houdini. But beware: a tilt factor of 14 means the player isn’t immune to a sulky moment or two after a rough loss — happens to the best of us, right?
