@MayimChayim is 2800 in hyperbullet

 Thursday January 14, 2021

 Four Player chess master @MayimChayim has recently gotten A rating of 2800 in hyperbullet. @MayimChayim is usually about 2600. 200 may not seem like much compared to the entire mass of 2800, but that's not true. At least that's not true for higher rated players (editor's note: it took eight months for me to get past 2300 :') ). 200 Is actually a lot of points, since there aren't many players they can gain much points with. Normally it takes at least 15 minutes to fill up at least a 2000+ queue. 2800 is a huge milestone in chess and 4pc.

 But 2800 isn't really the highest rating.

 The highest player, Lowish_Monkey Is 3200. How does he have such a huge rating? Well, hyperbullet champs in the past were usually 2800. Then, so many more people came along, but there wasn't much strategy, so it was and is easier to be good in hyperbullet compared to other ratings. 2000 is the average rating, compared to about 1500-1800 average in rapid standard FFA.

Mayim is really fast and has some amazing games, and some rather chaotic games. chess.com/4-player-chess?g=6301707; This wasn't Mayim's best game (editor: how??!??!?!), but beating grable, sakthi, tcd all in one game is almost impossible, and 115 moves is just... too fast. You really have to be a real monster in hyper to be able to do that. Here are some other of Mayim's wins. chess.com/4-player-chess?g=6301508, chess.com/4-player-chess?g=6313473, chess.com/4-player-chess?g=6313457, and Mayim's latest win, chess.com/4-player-chess?g=6313495. In Mayim's latest win Mayim had an amazing 2.1 seconds on the clock when the game ended after 37 moves. Here was the position:

 Mayim may become the best hyperbullet player in the future. He definitely has a good path to continue on for sure.
