Redouane Al: The Chess Enigma

Meet Redouane Al, a player whose chess journey unfolds like a thrilling novel full of unexpected twists and dramatic comebacks. With a peak blitz rating nudging just shy of 1100 and a rapid rating that soared to a cool 1002 in 2023 and 2025, Redouane proves to be a versatile force across time controls.

Starting with a respectable blitz rating around 678 in 2022, Redouane has demonstrated a steady climb and occasional dips that keep opponents guessing — much like his mysterious opening “Top Secret,” employed over a staggering 1400 blitz games. His blitz games boast a 50% win rate, turning the battlefield into a high-stakes guessing game where anything can happen.

Redouane's rapid games are his pièce de résistance, hitting and holding a 1002 rating with over 200 wins from nearly 400 games. Drawing on strong tactical awareness—with a jaw-dropping 71.7% comeback rate—he’s the kind of player who never admits defeat until the last piece falls. Indeed, if you snatch a piece from his grasp, beware: Redouane’s win rate after losing material is a flawless 100%. Talk about turning lemons into chess lemonade!

While bullet chess seems to ruffle his feathers now and then (starting strong with a 1046 peak and then settling to about 711), Redouane is no stranger to quick, flashy victories. His bullet win rate hovers just above 50%, making him a speed demon with a razor-sharp mind.

On the psychological front, Redouane wears his heart on his sleeve with a tilt factor of 14%—yes, even grandmasters (or soon-to-be ones) have off days. Yet, his rated versus casual performance gap (~-30%) suggests this is one player who thrives under pressure rather than in relaxed skirmishes.

When it comes to style, expect long, torturous battles with an average of over 60 moves per win and a bit fewer per loss. Redouane savors the endgame, engaging in it more than half the time—a testament to his patience and stamina. He’s equally comfortable playing White or Black, with a slight edge when wielding the white pieces (52.2% win rate).

Opponents beware: Redouane has been known to turn tables on favorites, boasting 100% win rates against a colorful roster of rivals. But don’t be deceived by the stats—he’s fiercely competitive and occasionally plagued by frustrations that make the journey all the more human and all the more entertaining.

In short, Redouane Al is a tenacious, unpredictable, and quietly brilliant player—a chess adventurer who finds beauty in the struggle, humor in the losses, and inspiration in each move. Watch out for his “Top Secret” opening, because with Redouane, you never quite know what’s coming next!
