Meet Yosra Alaa, Woman International Master Extraordinaire

Yosra Alaa, known in the chess circles as the formidable Woman International Master, has been quietly weaving tactical webs on the 64 squares since 2016. With a blitz peak rating nudging 1814, Yosra’s game is as fast and sharp as a knight’s jump — but don’t be fooled, the depth runs far beyond the quick moves.

Yosra’s playing style is a blend of patience and resilience: boasting an endgame frequency of nearly 66%, she knows when to cozy up to a quiet endgame and when to strike. This player’s average winning game length clocks in around 68 moves, proving that Yosra isn’t just about quick kills — she’s in it for the long haul.

When faced with setbacks, Yosra’s tactical awareness shines brilliantly. An astounding 86% comeback rate and a perfect 100% win rate after losing a piece make Yosra the embodiment of “never say die” on the board. Opponents beware: losing a piece is just setting up the trap.

Yosra’s psychological resilience could inspire a sports psychologist: despite a moderate tilt factor of 8, the ability to bounce back is unmatched. The difference between rated and casual play win rates suggests Yosra thrives under competitive pressure — a true gladiator of the tournament halls.

For fans of statistics, Yosra battles mostly in blitz games with over 700 recorded matches, securing 301 wins, 341 losses, and 41 draws. She’s especially deadly against players like oscar_ro and jasonxyz with a clean 100% win record. It’s clear: when Yosra focuses, victory is the only option.

Off the board, Yosra might be found plotting the next opening surprise — after all, the “Top Secret” opening has been her playground with a steady 44% winning rate across nearly 700 blitz games. Whether it’s a quiet sacrifice or a flashy queen maneuver, she keeps opponents guessing.

A trivia nugget:

At the stroke of midnight, Yosra is undefeated (100% win rate) — clearly, the witching hour suits this chess sorcerer just fine!

In short: Yosra Alaa is a fierce, resilient, and skillful chess warrior whose games blend strategy, endurance, and a pinch of magic. Watch out world — this WIM is on the rise!
