Шубин Кирилл – International Master Extraordinaire
Meet Шубин Кирилл, better known in the virtual chess realm as Shubinkirill2003. An International Master proudly accredited by FIDE, he’s the type of player who doesn’t just play chess — he lives it, breathes it, and on occasion, probably dreams about it (those tactical motifs don’t stand a chance of sneaking past him).
Blitz Lightning and Tactical Wizardry
Кирилл's blitz games are the stuff of legend. With a peak blitz rating surpassing 3000 (yes, you read that right, three thousand), he’s a rapid-fire maestro who knows how to keep his cool under the clock's pressure. Even on his worst days, managing a winning streak of 13 games at once is no ordinary feat. A comeback specialist, his ability to bounce back after losing a piece keeps opponents on their toes — classical resilience with a sprinkle of stubbornness.
A Playstyle That’s Equal Parts Grit and Grace
Known for deep, strategic battles averaging over 80 moves, Кирилл doesn't quit early, resigning less than 1% of the time. His games often unfold in epic endgames, showcasing his mastery in the sweat-and-nerves phase of chess. His white pieces deliver a slightly better strike rate than black, but don’t let that fool you — he’s just as comfortable seizing the initiative from the dark squares.
Not Just a Machine — A Human With Quirks
While statistics and ratings paint a picture of a formidable chess player, Кирилл is not immune to the human side of the game. With a tilt factor of 7, we imagine him occasionally muttering a few choice words at the board after unexpected blunders. Interestingly, his "best time to conquer" is around 6 AM — the ideal hour when the world is sleepy, and his brain is firing tactical lasers.
Chess Openings: The Mysterious “Top Secret” Weapon
What’s the secret weapon behind those slick wins? Officially, "Top Secret" openings dominate his repertoire, revealing little but showing results — over 2,600 games played with nearly a 46% win rate. From Sicilian Defense variations to the nimble handling of the Nimzo-Indian, Кирилл’s opening moves keep opponents guessing and scrambling.
Championship Spirit & Recent Battles
In his latest encounters, Кирилл demonstrated impeccable skill by winning with the black pieces through resignation in a Nimzo-Indian Defense battle, proving his endgame is as powerful as his opening. Despite recent tough losses by resignation or time, every game adds to his vast experience and hunger for improvement.
