Player Profile: 1Pleiades
Meet 1Pleiades, a dedicated chess enthusiast navigating the battlefield of pawns and knights with the tenacity of a star cluster. In the year 2025, this player has experienced a rollercoaster rating journey, peaking at 1104 in Rapid chess, but currently cruising at a modest 534. With over 1,000 Rapid games under their belt and nearly as many Blitz battles, 1Pleiades clearly loves both long thought battles and lightning-fast skirmishes.
Playing Style
Known for endurance, 1Pleiades averages nearly 48 moves per win — a testament to their patience and strategic depth. The endgame is their playground, appearing in about half of their games. They tend to hold their ground well, boasting a comeback rate above 57% and a flawless 100% win rate after losing a piece (talk about turning lemons into lemonade!). However, the occasional tilt strikes with an 11% tilt factor, proving even the stars can wobble.
Opening Repertoire
In Rapid games, 1Pleiades favors the Van t Kruijs Opening with a solid 50% win rate from over 200 games – a move that often leads opponents to wonder, "What fresh sorcery is this?" The French Defense and its variations shine in their arsenal, with win rates nudging the mid-50s percentile, making it clear they’re comfortable both defending and counterattacking. Queens Pawn Openings provide a respectable challenge as well.
Performance Highlights
- Rapid Record: 488 wins, 523 losses, 67 draws across 1,078 games
- Blitz Record: Just shy of even with 297 wins and 307 losses from 620 games
- Bullet Ratings sneakily under 300 but with 4 wins out of 16 games, proving quick decisions are sometimes tricky
- Longest Winning Streak: a sturdy 9 games in a row – might have been fueled by caffeine or cosmic alignment
Psychological Traits & Quirks
With a cheerful 3% early resignation rate, 1Pleiades is not one to give up easily (unless the queen waves the white flag). Interestingly, while their win rates hover around the mid-40s, when they lose material, they channel their inner phoenix and bounce back every time.
Community and Opponents
1Pleiades faces a wide array of challengers, having repeatedly tangled with rivals such as "ddemon26" and "aisannas" with mixed outcomes. Opponents like "laurin333" and "bruce_dgp" seem to fear the starry force—1Pleiades holds a perfect 100% win rate against them! But the mysterious "twi-ligot" still remains an elusive nemesis. The player’s interaction with the chess community is as dynamic as their gameplay: determined, adaptable, and sprinkled with moments of brilliance.
Fun Fact
1Pleiades thrives under a night owl’s schedule, boasting a stellar 100% win rate at 9 PM – who knew the stars really aligned at night?
In short, 1Pleiades may not be a grandmaster (yet!), but with a vast number of games, a resilient spirit, and a penchant for strategic comebacks, they’re definitely a player to watch — a constellation of potential in the universe of chess.
