Eyal Grinberg – International Master, Chess Dynamo
Meet Eyal Grinberg, a chess warrior who holds the coveted title of International Master granted by FIDE. Known in the chess world as rubhani, Eyal combines the precision of a surgeon with the tactical flair of a grandmaster in the making.
Starting from a modest 1370 Blitz rating in 2016, Eyal soared to an impressive peak of 2653 in 2018. That's a leap that would make even the most seasoned chess engines blink twice! Despite a few rating dips (because who doesn't have an off day?), this player’s average Blitz rating consistently hovered around the 2400 mark—enough to make opponents sweat bullets.
Eyal’s prowess isn’t limited to Blitz alone; they’ve dazzled in Bullet and Rapid too. With a Bullet max rating smashing well past 2800 in 2022, they're certainly not just fast on the clock but also sharp on the board. Their Rapid play saw a peak near 2570, proving adaptability across time controls.
Fun fact: Eyal can boast an 86% after almost losing – talk about fighting spirit! And if they lose a piece, watch out – they win nearly 95% of those games anyway. Clearly, Eyal doesn't just play chess, they wrestle it to the ground.
Eyal’s longest winning streak is 16 games, and currently, they're on a sizzling 3-game roll. Opponents beware: this master plays the game like it’s a thriller novel—full of twists and dramatic finishes that make every match a nail-biter.
As for style? Don’t expect quick quits – Eyal resigns early in only about 3% of games and loves the grind with an enviable endgame frequency above 75%. They average around 71 moves per win, so be ready to settle in for a marathon battle rather than a quick puzzle.
Off the clock, Eyal’s most frequent rivals include aliencowboy and johnathan113. Against some foes, Eyal’s near-perfect win rates (looking at you, toligor and friends with a 100% score!) suggest that these matchups are less battles and more performances of chess mastery.
When asked how Eyal spends their chess hours? Between 6 AM and 11 AM are their golden hours with win rates hitting the 50-55% mark, but a nocturnal guru they are not – the midnight hour is their least friendly zone.
Whether in Bullet, Blitz, or Rapid, Eyal Grinberg plays with a smile, a smirk, and a surprising amount of grit. If you're lucky, you might catch them online under their username, but if you’re unlucky? Well, prepare to be outplayed, outwitted, and outclassed.
