Pranav V - The Grandmaster of Blazing Pawns

Pranav V, famously known to the chess universe as vi_pranav, is no ordinary chess player—oh no! Holding the prestigious title of Grandmaster awarded by FIDE, Pranav has turned the chessboard into a battlefield where pawns sprint, knights leap unpredictably, and queens reign supreme with ruthless elegance.

A Rating Rollercoaster Ride

With a peak blitz rating soaring past 3162 as recently as September 2024 and a bullet high watermark of 3216, Pranav dances on the edge of chess greatness. Whether it’s blitz, bullet, or rapid, the numbers don’t lie. This player plays more games than most binge-watch series episodes—over 14,000 bullet games alone! Wins are plentiful, losses less so, but hey, even the best have their off days.

Master of Many Openings (and Secrets)

Pranav’s opening repertoire reads like a chess magician’s spellbook. From the mysterious Top Secret openings with a juicy 65% win rate in blitz, to flawless performances with the Ruy Lopez Cozio Defense (4/4 wins), this grandmaster loves to keep opponents guessing. Expect surprise attacks, sneaky tactics, and sometimes an unexpected gambit that leaves spectators on the edge of their seats.

A Tactical Beast with a Heart

Pranav’s tactical awareness is on another level, boasting a whopping 88% comeback success rate and a win rate above 51% after losing pieces. In other words, when the chips are down, Pranav doesn’t just survive—Pranav thrives, turning near-defeat into glorious victory with a sparkle of genius and a dash of luck.

Psychological Edge & Quirks

Like every human behind the pixels, Pranav is not immune to the infamous tilt, with a tilt factor of 20. But the best time to catch Pranav firing on all cylinders is around 4 PM, where win rates in blitz spike to over 60%! Must be all those afternoon lattes fueling the genius moves.

Recent Adventures on the 64 Squares

In the latest rounds of online combat, Pranav delivered a stunning checkmate using the Queen’s Pawn Opening, demonstrating both precision and flair. The games reveal a player not afraid to push aggressively with a queen on a mission—no stalemate blues here, just sharp endings and victorious celebrations.
