Which top chess player has the most chess.com achievements? (It's not Magnus)
Yes, the question everyone's been waiting for.
Who’s got the most Chess.com achievements?
Well, without further ado, let’s get into it.
So, first things first: most chess players have a few achievements, maybe from playing puzzles, winning some blitz games, or trying out Puzzle Rush. But when it comes to the world’s top players, their achievement counts can vary a lot — some grind Chess.com almost daily, while others barely log on except for events.
That’s why I’ve put together this list: to see which superstars have racked up the most (and the least!) achievements on Chess.com.
We'll first start off with the table. The one you've been looking for. SPOILERS (obviously). But which top chess player has the most achievements? Look down below: ↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓
