Grandmaster Swayams Mishra

Meet Swayams Mishra, a Grandmaster who has danced with kings and queens on the 64 squares like a true chess virtuoso. With a FIDE title proudly earned and a blitz pace that could put Usain Bolt to shame, Swayams is a force in the chess arena—both online and offline.

Rapid Rise, Bullet Brilliance

Starting with a modest Bullet rating of around 1500 in mid-2012, Swayams quickly escalated into the realms of 2800+ in bullet chess, marking their territory with fierce precision and a win rate just shy of 50% in over 2,400 games played in their signature "Top Secret" openings. Blitz fans beware: Swayams’ 50%+ win rate over 6,200+ games makes them a relentless opponent, ever ready to blitz your king off the board. Even in rapid chess, although dabbling less frequently, they maintain a solid near 69% win rate, showing there’s no time control too slow or too fast.

The Openings

Swayams’ opening repertoire is like a secret recipe—mostly “Top Secret”—but they have a few gems that shine like knights in shining armor! Expect to be greeted by 100% wins with the Dutch Defense, the Bird’s Opening Dutch Variation, or the Nimzowitsch Larsen Attack Classical Variation. Opponents often report feeling like they’re facing a mysterious grandmaster boutique, full of surprises and unconventional play.

Statistics & Style

  • Peak Bullet Rating: 2833 (May 2022)
  • Peak Blitz Rating: 2714 (April 2020)
  • Peak Rapid Rating: 2612 (May 2020)
  • Longest Winning Streak: 23 games
  • Longest Losing Streak: 19 games, which only made the comeback sweeter!
  • Early Resignation Rate: About 60%—perhaps they believe if the game’s lost, why drag it out? Quick and efficient, like a chess ninja.
  • Average Moves per Win: ~33 moves—patience mixed with tactical brilliance.

A Mind That Tilts Temporarily

Despite an impressive tilt factor of 19 (like many great minds, sometimes the pressure gets to them), Swayams consistently manages to pull off comebacks nearly 36% of the time after losing a piece. So never count them out early—they have a knack for bouncing back!

Recent Battles

The latest games demonstrate Swayams' strategic depth:

  • Victory with the Dutch Defense where they patiently outmaneuvered White’s delicate bishop play, forcing resignation by move 31.
  • Using the Bird's Opening to win on time in a fight that shows both sharp attack and stamina.
  • Occasional setbacks, like a recent loss due to a checkmate in a Nimzowitsch Larsen Attack variation, just fuel the fire for future matches.

Off the Board

When not calculating the next lethal move or testing new opening traps, Swayams probably enjoys baffling friends with their secret "Top Secret" opening tricks and their uncanny ability to turn a losing position into a wild win. Their true weapon? A mix of tactical wizardry and a dash of unpredictability.

In the world of chess, Swayams Mishra is that dazzling mix of science and art, with a personality sharp as a bishop and unpredictable as a knight’s leap. Whether you're a fan, a foe, or just a curious pawn in their game, one thing’s for sure: watching Swayams play is a check on boredom and mate to monotony.

“Chess is life in miniature, Swayams Mishra is no exception—quick, clever, and always ready to castle into victory.”
