Seyed Abolfazl Moosavifar - FIDE Master Extraordinaire
Meet Seyed Abolfazl Moosavifar, a chess wizard proudly carrying the esteemed title of FIDE Master. With a blitz rating soaring as high as 2764 in 2024, Seyed proves that speed and strategy can dance beautifully together on 64 squares.
Seyed’s playing style is a fascinating mix of patience and resilience — boasting an endgame frequency of over 85%, they know how to make every pawn and knight count until the very end. And if the chips are down, don't count them out; their comeback rate is an astonishing 91%, with a perfect winning streak after losing a piece. Talk about turning lemons into checkmate!
This maestro prefers to roll out tried-and-true openings, with a penchant for the Caro Kann Defense Advance Botvinnik Carls Defense, winning two-thirds of these battles. The French Defense Classical Steinitz Boleslavsky Variation also makes frequent appearances in Seyed's opening repertoire, proving a reliable weapon in their arsenal.
Against opponents, Seyed exhibits remarkable prowess with many boasting a 100% loss record against him — though a few pesky foes like “gmjoey1” keep things spicy with an almost equal win rate. Seyed shines brightest on Thursdays and evenings, especially around the golden hour of 16:00 to 21:00, where they maintain win rates touching 50% and beyond.
Off the board, Seyed is known for a relatively low tilt factor of 17 — in other words, they keep their cool even when the queen is captured unexpectedly. There's a dash of humor in their games too, as those early resignations are under 6%, showing thankfully a stubborn refusal to surrender without a fight.
Whether it’s blitz, bullet, or daily play, Seyed Abolfazl Moosavifar embodies the spirit of a true chess gladiator — thoughtful, relentless, and occasionally whimsical. So next time you see “Thursday_the_14_th” lighting up the leaderboard, remember: you're up against a master who turns every game into a story worth telling.
