Tairu Rovira: The Woman International Master with a Winning Smile
Meet Tairu Rovira, a formidable chess force and proudly carrying the title of Woman International Master awarded by FIDE. Known in the chess world as tairuRovira, this cunning strategist dances through the 64 squares with a blend of tactical sharpness and a splash of humor.
Starting from modest Blitz ratings around 1345 in early 2018, Tairu exploded onto the scene with rapid progress, hitting an impressive peak Blitz rating of 2104 by October 2019 — a true testament to their fierce dedication and love for the game. Whether blitzing through complicated middlegames or calmly executing endgame plans, their style combines patience (average 68 moves per win!) with tactical audacity — their comeback rate after losing a piece dazzles at over 82%.
Tairu is no stranger to the online battlefield, boasting a Blitz win record of 211 wins out of 424 intense fights, alongside gaudy Rapid and Bullet performances that highlight adaptability across all time controls. With a Bullet peak of nearly 2000, the lightning-fast decision-making skills definitely keep opponents on their toes.
Ever the psychological warrior, Tairu is known to play best in the wee hours (2 AM, anyone?), where the brain is supposedly sleep-deprived but chess senses heightened — proving that chess talent and a strange schedule can be a killer combo. Despite an occasional tilt factor of 8, they manage to bounce back quickly, keeping their longest winning streak alive at 8 and currently riding a 3-game winning spree.
Tairu’s battles take place across a variety of openings, mysteriously labeled "Top Secret" but delivering a solid near-50% win rate in Blitz and over 60% in Rapid games. Opponents beware: many have faced defeat multiple times, with Tairu holding a perfect score against a variety of players — and managing some surprising comebacks.
In their most recent triumph (July 25, 2024), Tairu outsmarted VengoDelStarcraft in a sharp Four Knights Game, winning convincingly with a textbook strike. Despite some setbacks in the past—like the memorable game against Serly25 in August 2020—Tairu Rovira’s journey is a rollercoaster of passion, perseverance, and the occasional checkmate delivered with flair.
When not plotting world domination on the board, Tairu is probably plotting their next big chess adventure... or joking about how pawns are secretly the kings of the battlefield. One thing's for sure: follow tairuRovira if you want a masterclass in strategy mixed with unforgettable personality.
