Neelash Saha - International Master Extraordinaire

Meet Neelash Saha, a chess player whose pieces move faster than you can say "Checkmate!" Earning the prestigious title of International Master from FIDE, Neelash has built a reputation as a tactical genius and a comeback artist on the digital battlefield.

Starting from humble beginnings with a blitz rating in the 1400s back in 2013, Neelash unleashed a storm of calculated moves and clever traps, skyrocketing to a blazing peak blitz rating over 2750 by 2023. If speed is king, their bullet chess is no slouch either — consistently crushing opponents with win rates over 55% in blitz and bullet formats, and demonstrating resilience with a comeback rate near 90%. Opponents beware: once Neelash loses a piece, their chances of winning zoom to over 97% — talk about making lemons into lemonade!

Neelash’s games are no short sprints; with an average of nearly 79 moves per win, they enjoy long, strategic battles that often come down to endgame mastery — which they enter nearly 80% of the time. White or black, they prove equally dangerous, winning more than half their games regardless of color. Rumor has it that their opponents’ tilt factor is real — but with a psychological resilience score that keeps Neelash cool under pressure, it’s the masters who crumble first.

When not busy orchestrating checkmates, Neelash has a curious obsession with “Top Secret” openings, having played over 600 blitz games with this mysterious repertoire, securing victories in more than half of them. On Sundays, they shine the brightest with an almost 62% win rate — perfect timing for bragging rights in weekend tournaments!

Outside the board, Neelash’s username, SahaNeelash, has become synonymous with sharp tactics, relentless spirit, and occasional bouts of playful mischief — after all, who doesn’t enjoy humiliating “dishonoronyourcow” repeatedly?

Warning: trying to predict Neelash’s next move may cause dizziness. Better just sit back and enjoy the show!
