Rakhim Pasiev: The International Master With a Blitzing Brain
Alias: Range_Rover
Rakhim Pasiev is an International Master recognized by FIDE, a title earned not through luck but through sheer tactical wizardry and relentless blitz battles. Known for transforming chessboards into their personal playground, Rakhim has a style as fast and furious as a supercharged Range Rover—hence the nickname.
Master of Lightning-Fast Moves
With a near-perfect blitz record boasting 24 wins, 1 loss, and 1 draw over recent matches, Rakhim dominates the 5-minute game like a speed demon on roller skates. His bullet games tell a similar tale—with 68 wins out of 89 games and a max rating soaring to 2376, anyone daring to challenge him better bring their A-game or prepare for defeat in under a minute.
Secrets of His Success
Rakhim’s opening repertoire is shrouded in mystery (literally stored as "Top Secret"), but his results are clear: over 90% win rate in blitz openings and a solid 76% in bullet. Opponents often joke that facing him is like battling a ninja—moves come out of nowhere, and by the time you realize what happened, your king is in checkmate.
The Streak and Comebacks
At one point, Rakhim went on a staggering 41-game winning streak that left the chess community both impressed and questioning if he had secretly hacked the matrix. His comeback rate is an astonishing 87%, and should he lose a piece, his win rate climbs to a perfect 100%. Giving up is not in his vocabulary.
Playing Style & Psychological Edge
Rakhim averages nearly 69 moves per win, showing a love for lengthy, strategic endgames, appearing on the board 79% of the time. Though he tilts occasionally (at a low factor of 4), he compensates with tactical brilliance. Playing as White or Black doesn’t phase him—both sides yield nearly 79% wins, proving he’s equally comfortable attacking or defending.
