Shashikant Kutwal (aka shav3184) - International Master Extraordinaire
Shashikant Kutwal isn't your average chess player – they are an International Master recognized by FIDE, which means they've likely checked more kings than your average TV detective.
Starting modestly with a Blitz rating in the 1300s back in 2011, Shashikant quickly accelerated their chess rocket, smashing the 2500 mark by 2024 in Blitz – a score that would make many grandmasters nod with respect. Their Blitz games boast an impressive 61.5% win rate over more than 1,500 battles fought with the mysterious but effective "Top Secret" openings. Who knew secrecy could be so powerful?
With over 900 wins in Blitz alone, this speed demon’s longest winning streak reached a jaw-dropping 31 games. Talk about a hot hand! Not just a speedy tactician, shav3184’s Rapid chess is a force to reckon with — flaunting a dazzling 84.2% win rate with the "Top Secret" repertoire, which frankly sounds like a chess-related James Bond mission.
Playing Style & Excel-lence
Shashikant has a penchant for deep, strategic battles averaging about 60 moves per win. Their endgame skills are solid, appearing in nearly 68% of their games, proving they don’t just blitz and quit – they fight to the final pawn. Despite a low early resignation rate (~5%), their tactical awareness is razor-sharp, boasting an epic 100% win rate after losing a piece – because sometimes losing a pawn is just part of the grand plan.
The Human Side
Even a chess ninja like Shashikant has their moments: a tilt factor of 10 hints that frustration visits occasionally, but nothing too catastrophic. Curiously, their rated wins lag behind casual games by about 36%, showing there’s still some mystery in balancing nerves and nerves of steel.
Fun Facts
- Prefers to play on Wednesdays and Thursdays, winning around 70% of the time – maybe those are secret lucky days?
- Late-night sessions (around 4 AM) result in a stellar 73% win rate – night owl or just nocturnal genius?
- Has undefeated records (100% win rates) versus a litany of opponents including "levy_nakamura1122" and "realmadrid4ewer" – sorry, no mercy on the pitch or the board.
All in all, Shashikant Kutwal, aka shav3184, is a formidable and fascinating chess wizard who has proven time and again that the battlefield of 64 squares yields plenty of glory for those who dare to master it—while keeping a dash of mystery and humor alive in their "Top Secret" playbook.
