Alajno: The Rapid Roller of the Chessboard

Meet Alajno, a chess player whose rapid rating journey resembles a rollercoaster with more ups than downs. Starting with a modest rapid rating of 220 in early 2024, Alajno quickly sped up to a peak of 463 by 2025—a meteoric rise that would leave any casual observer breathless.

Alajno is neither your typical grandmaster persona nor a mere beginner; this player boasts a nearly equal number of wins and losses in rapid games (468 wins to 450 losses), sprinkled with a few tense draws. The style? Expect a blend of resilience and flair, given an impressive 100% win rate after losing a piece—because who needs all their pieces to dominate, right?

Playing Style & Quirks

• Early Resignation Rate: 14.67% — sometimes, Alajno knows when to cut their losses and save time for the next game.
• Average Moves Per Win: ~45 — this player enjoys a lengthy battle, thinking deeply rather than rushing.
• Endgame Frequency: 33.3% — quarter-to-third of games dance down to intense endgame scenarios.
• Win rates are neck-and-neck with White at 49.79% and Black at 49.47%, proving versatility and balance.
• Longest winning streak is 7 games — a lucky seven, or pure skill? You decide.

Opening Theater

Alajno’s secret weapon? An enigmatic opening simply called "Top Secret" played in over 900 rapid games with nearly 50% wins.

But they also like to experiment with classics and rarities alike, from the French Defense Queens Knight Variation (100% win rate in 2 games) to the Pirc Defense Modern Defense Geller System, where victory is guaranteed (also 100%). It’s safe to say Alajno enjoys keeping opponents guessing.

Opponent Chronicles

Notable opponents like dranoellll, ninothecino, and adam45999 have faced Alajno recently, though their results hint that Alajno might be more of a mystery to some than a conqueror. Still, a daunting 50% win rate against slawek966 and 50% against achillespeleusx keeps things interesting.

When Does Alajno Play?

Evening is prime time for Alajno, especially around 19:00 and 18:00 hours where win rates soar above 56%. And let's not forget that magical 23:00 hour where Alajno boasts an 80% win rate—perhaps the moonlight enhances their tactical genius.

Psychological Edge

With a tilt factor of just 9, Alajno keeps a cool head most of the time. Plus, a 50% comeback rate means this player is never truly out of the fight.

All in all, Alajno is a rapidly rising star with a dash of mystery, humor, and unpredictability—a worthy adversary who never quite reveals all their secrets on the chessboard.
