Style of Play

Aleksandrkoven’s style is crafted for endurance and resilience. With a come-back rate of 90.7%, they're the player you never count out.

They savor the endgame, pushing an impressive 70.9% frequency in their games, proving patience and precision are key.

Don’t let their calm fool you — their tilt factor is a modest 10 out of 100, meaning they handle setbacks with the grace of a chess zen master, only occasionally tempted to rage-quit early (early resignation rate of 0.33%).
