Welcome to my profile’s bio!

• Chess Background

I started playing around 2022, it's been nearly 4 years. I joined chess.com on August 9, 2024. I have experience playing chess. Although my ELO/rating says otherwise, I am still good at chess. I beat a 1628 rated player in 51 moves. Click HERE to view the game. In a 30 Sec Hyper Bullet Tournament in chess.com, I got 4th place. And in my school Rapid Chess Tournament, I got tied for 7th place with 3 different participants out of 35 people. I am still trying to improve at chess, my goal is 1000 ELO. I worked my way up to 600 ELO from 100 ELO with so much efforts, understanding of the game and grind. Click HERE to view my ChessKid profile!

• My Background

My name is Knivion. My real name is Norvik Knivion. But still, do please call me Knivion, I prefer it the most. With my favorite piece in chess being the Knight that is where the Kniv- part came from. And the other -Vion comes from Oblivion. I live in Phoenix, Arizona. And yes, I have visited the Great Canyon. In an OTB Tournament I forced a 1300 ELO to resign after 5 forced moves which led to his queen capture. Feel free to send me cheers or badges, I will accept all!

• Clubs

Although, I joined chess.com on August 9, 2024. I joined clubs on July 12, 2025. And the first club I join was called: ARCHANGEL CHESS FIGHTERS. I got invited by @GOURGOURINIS. Inspired from many other different club owners, I decided to start my own. It is called: ᴜɴɪᴛᴇᴅ ᴄʜᴇss ғᴇᴅᴇʀᴀᴛɪᴏɴ. It has 500 members. It also has 8 titled players, 5 chess.com coaches, 2 top bloggers, and 1 streamer. For more information regarding ths club, please DM me.

It is said that this like a graduation ceremony where Chillies receive their diploma. And this is mine. It is given to Chillies who helped the awesome club thrive.

• Blogs

I write about chess ideas that matter in real games—tactics, strategy, and endgames built around patterns, not memorization. Alongside that, I also cover real-world chess tournament news and updates, often following official sources like FIDE for reliable information. My focus is on connecting practical gameplay lessons with what’s happening in the global chess scene. If you want to check out my blogs, click HERE to view them. I hope you like them!
