Known for a quirky blend of persistence and flair, 256simple has battled through over 10,000 rapid games, boasting nearly equal wins and losses, with a dash of draws thrown in—very much the sign of a resilient player who never backs down, even when the odds are puzzlingly balanced.

Winning Streaks & Style

Their longest winning streak reached a dazzling 10 games—a clear demonstration that when 256simple gets on a roll, it's best to grab popcorn.

Talk about turning lemons into tactical lemonade! On tilt only 12% of the time, this player keeps cool when the pressure mounts (unless you sneak in an unexpected checkmate).

Playing Preferences & Opponents

Playing white suits them better, with a win rate exceeding 51%, while black play hovers near 46%. Their go-to opening? "Top Secret"—because some moves are best kept under wraps, obviously. Despite facing various opponents many times, their win rates reveal a rather colorful history: some adversaries never see victory (0% win rate!), while a lucky few have found the magic touch against 256simple. It’s a chess saga of epic triumphs, tough losses, and those legendary games you’ll hear about in chess clubs for ages.
