Kirias Ve

Kirias Ve - A Blitz Bandit of the Board

Meet Kirias Ve, also known in the chess cosmos as TiesDu, a player whose rating graph looks like a thrilling rollercoaster ride — and who wouldn't want to experience that kind of drama in every blitz game? Bursting onto the chess.com scene with a modest blitz debut rating of just 100 in early 2024, Kirias didn’t let that hold them back. By December 2024, they skyrocketed to an impressive peak blitz rating of 402, showcasing a fierce fighting spirit and uncanny ability to outmaneuver opponents when lightning-fast decisions count most.

Kirias's pawns and pieces dance best in the realm of blitz, having battled through over 3,000 games (yes, three thousand!) and pocketing more than 1,300 wins. Although not shy of losses (hey, even grandmasters lose their queen sometimes), the sheer volume of games played reflects dedication and unyielding passion. Rapid and bullet chess have also felt Kirias's touch, with their all-time rapid peak climbing to a notable 572, and bullet cresting at an impressive 754 — proof that when speed matters, Kirias is often in control (or at least hilariously trying to be).

More than just a numbers aficionado, Kirias shows a strategic mind with a winning streak bestiary that includes a longest winning spree of 9 games straight — a streak that would make even Magnus quiver. On the flipside, losing streaks have hit seventeen, but the resilient TiesDu always bounces back, backed by a commendable comeback rate of 77% when the chips are down. That’s some resilience for someone who apparently loves opening with "Top Secret" (which may or may not be the real name for creative improvisation).

Kirias is not merely a gamer aiming for quick wins; their style reveals deep endgame knowledge (playing out nearly 58% of wins with endgame finesse) and average winning games stretching beyond 47 moves, illustrating patience and persistence. They prefer to start strong with the white pieces, boasting a slightly higher win rate (46%) versus 42% with black. Timewise, this player is unstoppable at midnight — indeed their best time of day to play is precisely when the clock strikes 00:00 — perhaps a night owl with a penchant for checkmates in the witching hour.

When Kirias wins, opponents might resign early (with an early resignation rate of just over 2%), but more often, battles end through frostbite-inducing checkmates or time scrambles. Their current winning streak is a healthy four games, so watch out competitors, the blitz beast is still on the prowl.

Notable Openings & Play Highlights:

• Grob Opening: 100% win rate in all 4 blitz games—clearly a secret weapon!
• Queen’s Pawn Opening Krause Variation: Perfectly executed with 2 wins in 2 games.
• Top Secret Opening (a.k.a. improvisation ace): Nearly 3,000 blitz games with a solid 44% win rate.

Recent Battles:

One recent triumph saw Kirias outmaneuver tcminer16 with a swift d4 and timely bishop tactics, forcing an abandoned game victory in a tactical blaze. However, not all encounters go their way — a tough checkmate loss to malakim17 reminds us that even the fastest knights can stumble.

Whether you see Kirias as a chess enigma or a humorous hustler on the 64 squares, one thing is for sure: this player brings energy, unpredictability, and determination to every game. Just remember to keep your defenses tight — Kirias never goes down without a good fight (and maybe a few cheeky moves).
