Fahid Mohammad - The FIDE Master Extraordinaire
Meet Fahid Mohammad, also known in the chess realms as staz_staz, a master of the 64 squares with the prestigious title of FIDE Master. Fahid doesn’t just play chess; they live chess, battling the clock and opponents with a style that combines tenacity and a sprinkle of unpredictability.
Their bullet rating hit a blazing peak of 2675 in September 2024 — and if chess was a race, Fahid would surely be leading the pack with a bullet win record that boasts over 11,200 victories. When the lights dim and speed chess takes over, Fahid’s reflexes sharpen like a knight poised to fork kings and queens in the blink of an eye.
When not blitzing opponents into submission, Fahid equally dominates in blitz (peaking at 2440) and rapid formats (peaking at 2269), proving that their strategic prowess isn’t just about speed but sound calculation and patience. With an average game lasting nearly 80 moves for wins and losses alike, Fahid’s battles are epics that could rival Tolstoy!
Known for their love of the King's Indian Defense Gligoric System and Sicilian Defense variations, Fahid’s openings hint at a player who loves complexity just as much as a good tactical skirmish. And while their favorite time to terrorize opponents is between the crack of dawn (04:00) and those mysterious early morning hours, their games at 4 AM prove that sleep is for the weak.
But don't be fooled — despite their fierce competitive spirit, Fahid maintains an impressive comeback rate of over 90% when trailing. If you think you’re cornered, think again; Fahid’s psychological resilience is rivaled only by their opponent’s frustration!
Fun fact: Fahid has the remarkable habit of occasionally resigning early (0.4% of games), proving even the masters know when to gracefully bow out before launching their next comeback.
Their most recent victory was a checkmate masterpiece against opponent raphael31300, showcasing calm nerves and precise endgame technique to close out the battle in style. With stalemates and draws being a rarity, opponents often find themselves overwhelmed before the final board drop.
Whether it’s bullet, blitz, or rapid, Fahid Mohammad is a name that echoes in the chess corridors – a player whose mix of speed, strategy, and relentless spirit makes every game an experience worth watching. So if you’re brave enough to take them on, better prepare your best moves… or prepare for a swift checkmate!
