Profile Summary: shahnazmohammadfaruq

Meet shahnazmohammadfaruq, a chess warrior whose journey on the 64 squares looks like a thrilling rollercoaster ride of victories, near-misses, and blistering tactics. Rated near the 2200 mark in Blitz at peak, this warrior has smitten opponents across crowds of games spanning more than a decade, sometimes bursting into lengthy winning streaks (21 games straight!) and other times tasting defeat more often than they'd like (a losing streak of 20 games, ouch!). Yet, like true chess heroes, the spirit ain't broken!

Starting around 2012 with a humble Blitz rating of 1300s, this player soared reaching a sparkling peak of 2198 by 2018, and the bullet rating soared too, cresting over 2060! In rapid chess, the style is more... refined, boasting a peak near 1910, showing versatility across modes. The Daily chess adventures might not be this player's strong suit yet – only a handful of games – but who needs sleep when you’re orchestrating Blitz sacrifices, right?

Known for a tactical comeback rate of about 84%, shahnazmohammadfaruq doesn’t just roll over after losing material; instead, this player throws more cunning traps than a chess-themed escape room. The average game length? A marathon 70+ moves on wins, which says this isn’t some quick blitzer slashing and dashing randomly but a strategist ready to grind down foes.

Opening repertoire reveals a strong love for the Sicilian Defense Najdorf variation, where the player claims a respectable 54% win rate in Blitz — not too shabby! In Bullet, versatility shines with frequent visits to Queen’s Pawn and Van t Kruijs openings. The Scandinavian Defense is also a familiar battlefield, wielded with flash and flair.

The psychological edge? This chess enthusiast tends not to tilt hard (only 20 on the tilt factor scale) and actually has a better win rate in the evening hours — 19:00 is prime time for king-smashing combos. The resignation rate is low, so don’t expect a quick throw-in-the-towel from this gladiator.

For a dash of humor: Whether it's pulling off rook sacrifices with the finesse of a chess ninja or making opponents regret their mediocre opening choices, shahnazmohammadfaruq fights like a grandmaster caught in a blender of tactical fireworks and creative mishaps – and somehow still comes out on top more often than not!

Notable Recent Spotlight: In a live Blitz clash in February 2021, shahnazmohammadfaruq dazzled with a Scandinavian Defense masterpiece, capitalizing on piece activity and forcing a resignation by move 44. Resistance was futile.

Like a phoenix from the ashes of losses, this player’s journey is proof that chess isn’t just about rating points — it’s about strategy, style, and a sprinkle of chaos.
