Gary Giroyan - International Master Extraordinaire
Gary Giroyan, crowned with the prestigious title of International Master by FIDE, is no ordinary chess player. Known on the board as the mysterious RuppertPumpkin, Gary blends cool calculation with a streak of unpredictable brilliance that can flummox even the sharpest grandmasters.
Rating Rollercoaster and Style
Gary's blitz and bullet ratings read like a thrilling novel — peaking at a blazing 2758 in blitz and 2741 in bullet during 2022. Their rapid play, while less chronicled, is undefeated with a perfect win record! Talk about a quick study.
If chess were a marathon, Gary would sprint the first 70+ moves with a tactical awareness that’s almost comical in its effectiveness, boasting a 97.66% win rate after losing a piece. Rumor has it those extra sacrifices are just part of the master plan... or perhaps an elaborate way to keep opponents on their toes.
The Comeback Kid
Defeat? Never an option! Gary’s comeback rate is a staggering 87.37%, often turning lost positions around with a grin and maybe a sly quip about how "the game really begins when you’re behind." Opponents beware: quitting early is futile here, as Gary’s early resignation rate is a mere 2.72%, preferring to battle until the very end.
Opponents Beware — And Friends?
With a fondness for secret openings and nearly 3,000 games played in blitz alone, Gary has a love-hate relationship with many foes. Some like yoda1992 face a 100% defeat rate, while others like viktor_soloviev manage to rattle Gary’s cage into a zero percent win rate. It’s all part of the grand chess opera.
Off the Board
When not crushing pawns and kings, Gary spends time perfecting the art of psychological warfare — boasting a tilt factor of 12, which means frustration occasionally visits but quickly learns where the door is. And with an average of almost 72 moves per win, patience is Gary’s middle name (well, maybe not literally, but you get the point).
In the world of chess, Gary Giroyan is a blend of tenacity, exceptional skill, and a pinch of unpredictable charm — making every encounter an event to remember. Whether blitzing through defenses or bulleting past opponents, Gary’s legacy is one for the chess books (and playful banter over a coffee).
