Zoran Jakovljević: The Chess Adventurer

Meet Zoran Jakovljević, a tactical wizard on the 64 squares with a rapid mind and a penchant for the unexpected. Known in the chess realms as zoranjakovljevic, this player is no stranger to the drama and excitement of both classical and blitz arenas—although let's be honest, Zoran truly shines when the clock runs fast and the bullets fly!

Rating Rollercoaster and Brilliance

Since 2016, Zoran's blitz rating skyrocketed from just over 2100 to an impressive 2444 in 2025, proving that slow and steady wins... well, maybe not always, because Zoran's style is anything but slow! Also mastering rapid games with a peak over 2300 in 2024, he balances speed and deep thinking like a juggler on a tightrope.

Playing Style: Patience Meets Precision

With an Average Moves Per Win of around 80, Zoran enjoys marathons rather than sprints, relishing endgames and long tactical battles. His Endgame Frequency sits at a notable 88%, showing a true strategist who doesn’t just blunder but battles until the very last move.
Speaking of resilience, his Comeback Rate is a staggering 94%, and if he loses a piece, watch out—his Win Rate After Losing Piece is a perfect 100%. Clearly, Zoran’s slogan might as well be "Never give up... unless the snacks are ready."

Psychological Fortitude

With a tilt factor hovering around 31, Zoran keeps cool under pressure, rarely letting emotions sabotage the game. His strong mental game means he can handle both casual matches and rated battles, boasting a significant win difference of 44.4% when switching between the two.

Opening Mysteries & Secret Gambits

Zoran's opening repertoire is delightfully mysterious. Whether using "Unknown Opening" or the intriguingly named "Top Secret," he keeps opponents guessing. Fun fact: he has over 23,000 blitz games with "Unknown Opening"—call it chess espionage! And he wins just enough to keep you awake at night.

Rivals and Conquests

Blessed with a diverse list of opponents, Zoran's tales of rivalry include strong victories and the occasional humbling defeat. Some opponents have no chance (hello, 0% win rate!), while others have been conquered repeatedly, capturing Zoran's ability to adapt and strike back stronger.

Fun Facts

  • Longest winning streak: 16 games. Because who needs sleep anyway?
  • Favorite hours to dominate: early mornings around 6-7 AM, when most players are half-asleep… perfect for sneaky tactics!
  • His win rate with white pieces (46.9%) slightly edges out black (41.9%), proving he’s a fierce battler regardless of color.

Whether climbing the ranks or entertaining his endless chess fanbase, Zoran Jakovljević plays chess like a masterful mix of a deep thinker and a lightning bolt. Watch out: he’s got the brains, the speed, and maybe the snacks to conquer your next game!
