Born to calculate, destined to dominate, Ray has earned his stripes from FIDE and the respect of chess enthusiasts worldwide. Known for his strategic brilliance and a penchant for tactical fireworks, he doesn't just play chess—he performs it.

His rapid rating peaked at 2796, showing he's equally adept when the clock ticks a bit slower. Known for an average win game-length of 74 moves and a comeback rate of over 80%, Ray’s style blends patience, precision, and resilience. White pieces favor him with a 61% win rate, but don't discount his black pieces—it’s still a strong 54%.

With a tilt factor of just 6 (for those who don’t speak chess psychology, that’s basically zen mode), Ray thrives best around 4 PM—talk about peak brain power timing! His best win chances come on Mondays, where he boasts nearly a 65% win rate. Early mornings might find others sipping coffee; Ray is already planning his next knockout move.

Recent Battles

In his latest triumph against "Gryffindor92," Ray sealed victory by checkmate in a thrilling Indian Game, showing once again why resignations aren’t necessary when you've got a lethal attack. Even when he loses, the games are battles of wits and endurance proving he's always in control—even down to the last second.

Fun Fact
