Андрій Шанковський - International Master Extraordinaire
Meet Андрій Шанковський, affectionately known in the chess realm as Shankovskyi, a title-holder and strategic mastermind graced with the prestigious International Master badge from FIDE. Clearly, this grandmaster-in-the-making doesn't just play chess; he choreographs epic battles on 64 squares.
With a peak blitz rating over 2600 and a rapid peak flirting with the 2500 mark, Андрій has proven to be as versatile as a Swiss Army knife—cutting through opponents in rapid, blitz, and even bullet with varying degrees of success (bullet could use a little less “flash” and more “bang”). His solid and steady game is backed by a Longest Winning Streak of 12 games which, frankly, sounds like a mini chess domination saga.
What’s more impressive than his stats? His comeback rate of 89.34%. Lose a piece? No worries—he bounces back with 100% win rate after those slip-ups, making him the ultimate chess phoenix. It’s like watching a suspense thriller where he always pulls off the last-minute save that leaves spectators and opponents alike dumbfounded.
His opening repertoire remains Top Secret—a mysterious black box where victories silently accumulate: 75% win rate in rapid and 52% in blitz speaks volumes for his sneaky tactical prowess. Opponents beware: those opening moves might just be a prelude to an unforgettable checkmate.
When it comes to psychological resilience, Андрій has a tilt factor of 7, proving he can stay cool under pressure, though every hero has his kryptonite. Fun fact: his best chess hours are apparently between 5 AM (100% win rate!) and late morning, making him the undisputed king of early bird chess tactics.
Off the board, he’s probably the kind of player who ponders the best coffee blend for critical thinking or who has a lucky chess piece never too far from his side. Regardless, one thing is clear: Андрій Шанковський is a force in the chess world, mixing talent, persistence, and a hint of mystery—ready to keep opponents guessing move after move.
