Meanwhile, his venture into Blitz has been brief but promising, achieving a peak rating of 513. Although less active in Bullet, he reached a top rating of 173 there.
Known for his keen tactical mindset, Ramkishan often thrives in comebacks—he boasts a remarkable 60.86% revival rate when behind on material. Once locked in, he’s not afraid to play longer endgames, which make up over half of his matches. He is equally comfortable with White and Black pieces, winning nearly half of his games as White and close to half as Black. His duel with the King’s Pawn Opening in Rapid stands out: 301 games played with over 49% of them ending in victory. He has also shown success with the French Defense, achieving over 60% wins in nearly 40 games.
Beyond openings and ratings, Ramkishan’s resilience is exemplified by his ten-game winning streak at one point, alongside a relatively low early-resignation rate. Thursdays seem to be his strongest day to compete, holding a slightly higher win rate than other days of the week. Even when facing challenging opponents, his psychological fortitude remains impressive; a tilt factor of just 6 highlights his calm under pressure. Driven to refine his style, Ramkishan continues to explore different openings and looks to bolster his performance across new formats, always seeking fresh insights into the game he loves.
