Hi! I'm Vahan :) Chess Player, Coach, Student and now Streamer?? Age: 21 Where I'm from: Yerevan <3 FIDE Max: 2170s National Max: 2270ish but no one cares Chesscom Blitz Peak: 2598 Briefly about my chess: I started doing chess when i was like 5. Got to expert level in the next few years, had some success locally then kinda stopped taking chess seriously in my early teenage years cuz it got a bit boring/disliked it/got interested in other stuff. Ended up coming back to chess because i figured i did actually love it and am passionate about it, also started coaching. Then around 17 i took a break from competing in order to study and prepare for university. Hobbies include: Football, Table Tennis, Video Games, Being Grateful for my Friends & Family, Dreaming about Travelling the World, Watching Shows and YouTube Videos until my battery runs out, Procrastinating to the point where i feel im useless lol ok let me leave it at this KEKW

I've been coaching for a couple of years now and greatly enjoy it. IRL and Online, mostly individual but have decent experience with group lessons too. I've worked with students of all ages and skill levels ranging from kids to adult improvers, complete beginners to 2000+ players and almost everywhere in between. Currently I want to focus my efforts towards streaming more and coaching less.

I was the first 4 Player Chess player to reach 3000 in FFA (Free For All,) only player to be 3000+ rated in both Rapid and Blitz modes. Kept the #1 spot on Rapid + Blitz Leaderboards for the longest time. I also enjoy other Chess Variants such as Fischer's Chess960, Duck Chess and many more! Would like to improve at Bughouse and CraZyHouse.
