Semih Çelik: The Enigmatic Chess Contender
Meet Semih Çelik, also known by the username semihcelik465, a chess enthusiast whose journey in the 64-square battlefield has been nothing short of intriguing. With a playing style that balances patience and tactical cunning, Semih is a rapid and blitz player who’s tasted both sweet victories and humbling defeats — sometimes in the same session!
Shooting up from a rapid rating of 715 in 2020 to almost 700+ by 2024, Semih has definitely been crawling, sprinting, and occasionally limping through the ranks. With an overall rapid win record hovering just above 51% across more than 260 rapid games, and blitz battles that prove he can handle pressure with a 47% win rate, he’s the kind of player who loves a good fight and rarely resigns early (only about 7.35% of the time — respect!).
Known for a remarkable comeback rate of 61.7% and a flawless record of winning after losing a piece (100% win rate!), Semih embodies resilience. Opponents beware: once Semih slips up, the fight is far from over — it might just be the opening salvo of an epic comeback story.
While his longest winning streak caps at 8 games, Semih’s current streak is a humble zero — so maybe it's time for a rally? His opening repertoire remains a Top Secret, baffling opponents and leaving them guessing. And if you’re lucky (or unlucky) enough to face him on a Friday evening, you might just be in trouble — that’s Semih’s prime time, with a 65% win rate on Fridays!
When not battling on the board, Semih seems to enjoy making friends... and nemeses. From opponents he dominates with a perfect 100% win rate to some he has yet to conquer, his competitive spirit never fades. And yes, despite some ups and downs, Semih continues to enjoy chess as a daily ritual, boasting a 100% win rate in daily chess games — a feat for the champions of routine!
Semih Çelik: a resilient fighter, a tactician with a secret arsenal, and a chess player who proves every game counts — even if it’s just a few moves before moving on to the next thrilling encounter.
