Playing Style & Quirks
Rajkiran plays smartly, featuring an early resignation rate of about 6%, perhaps saving energy for the next game—or admitting defeat gracefully. He revels in endgames, with his games going on for an average of 49 moves in wins, proving persistence is one of his virtues. His comeback rate is a solid 50%, making him the kind of player who doesn’t fold easily once down a piece.

With a tilt factor of 8, Rajkiran occasionally lets emotions chip away at his focus, but with a 100% win rate after losing a piece, it's clear he channels frustration into fierce determination. His rated games typically skew 44.57% more wins than casual, showcasing serious competitive spirit.
Timing is Everything
If you catch Rajkiran playing, chances are it’s not on a Sunday or Wednesday, where his win rates peek in the mid-40s. But beware playing him early in the morning hours like 1 AM or 3 AM—he boasts win rates of over 50%, so he might just be the midnight mastermind you don’t want to face!
The Opponent Chronicles
Rajkiran’s record against opponents is a mixed bag, with some like conver2024 yielding a perfect 100% win rate, while others have proven tricky foes. Nevertheless, the variety of opponents and outcomes builds a colorful chronicle of his chess battles.
