Rishik Agrawal: The Chessboard Biologist
Also known by the username rik911, Rishik Agrawal is a chess player whose career resembles an evolutionary experiment on the 64 squares. With a peak rapid rating of 838 back in 2020 and a persistent presence across multiple formats – rapid, blitz, daily, and bullet – Rishik exhibits a game style that mutates with each challenge.
Starting with a fierce rapid (and blitz) spark in 2020, Rishik’s rating journey is like a cell mitosis — sometimes doubling with victories, sometimes fragmenting in loss. His rapid games tell a story of gradual adaptation, with over 520 battles fought using a “Top Secret” opening repertoire, boasting a 42% win rate that’s just enough to keep opponents guessing. And yes, keeping secrets in chess, much like DNA, is key to survival!
Rishik’s tactical awareness is nothing to sneeze at — exhibiting a remarkable 100% win rate after losing a piece (no fungus among us!). His ability to stage comebacks (53.1% comeback rate) suggests that like a hardy organism, he thrives under pressure, refusing to go extinct in the endgame where he frequently emerges.
Although early resignations happen in about 18% of his games, one might blame it on metabolic fatigue – even grandmasters need to save energy! His average moves per win and loss hover around 48 and 39 moves respectively, signaling that Rishik prefers longer evolutionary battles on the chessboard, where strategy undergoes slow but steady natural selection.
Psychologically, Rishik demonstrates a moderate tilt factor (14), which is like a small bacterial reaction to stress – manageable and recoverable. The rated vs casual win difference being over 40% implies serious survival instincts when stakes rise.
Opponent Interactions and Streaks
Among his most recent opponents, Rishik has a 100% victory rate against “smartins89” and “samane_d,” demonstrating his selective fitness. Despite some tough losses to others like “edu1410” and “juggernaut8654,” Rishik’s longest winning streak of 6 games reveals periods of rapid genetic drift in his favor. Currently on a 2-game winning streak, the evolutionary curve looks promising.
Playing Hours & Habits
Rishik prefers to prowl the chess jungles in prime hours, boasting a win rate above 50% during specific times like 10 AM and 9 PM, while performance dips in low-activity hours (3 AM with just 7%!). Like any nocturnal organism, timing matters.
All in all, Rishik Agrawal is a fascinating specimen in the chess ecosystem — evolving, adapting, occasionally mutating, but always making moves that keep his opponents on their toes. Studying him is like observing evolution in motion. Whether you’re a casual opponent or a seasoned predator, brace yourself for a battle where brains, wit, and a little bit of chess biology collide.
