About aleksandrvr

Meet aleksandrvr, a chess adventurer who has been navigating the complex genome of chess openings and endgames with the tenacity of a queen on a hunt. With roots tracing back to 2019 in blitz and 2020 in rapid formats, aleksandrvr has steadily evolved, peaking at a rapid rating of 1159 and a blitz high of 1277. Despite some ups and downs—as is natural in the evolutionary tree of a player—their persistent playstyle shows a heart as durable as the toughest knight's armor.

Playing Style & Strategy

Known for an average of 39 moves per win, aleksandrvr balances patience and attack with a slightly higher win rate playing as White (52.36%) versus Black (46.29%). Their endgame frequency is about 32%, indicating a preference for seeing battles through to the cellular division of endgames rather than apoptosis (early resignations are kept low at just under 2%). Tactical awareness is sharp, featuring an impressive 100% win rate after losing a piece, showcasing a remarkable ability to adapt — a true genetic survivor of the chessboard ecosystem.

Opening Repertoire

Like a geneticist studying favored traits, aleksandrvr has a favorite sequence of moves, especially enjoying the rich and aggressive branches of the King's Gambit family—roaming with a healthy 58% win rate overall and even better in the Accepted variations. Scandinavian and French defenses also make frequent appearances in their genealogy of games, balancing their assertiveness with a touch of defensive mutation.

Competitive Record & Psychology

With more than 5,800 wins and a near equivalent number of losses in rapid games, and a blitz record that shows spirited engagements, aleksandrvr demonstrates resilience and competitive grit. Their tilt factor is modest at 12, suggesting the ability to keep cool even when the metabolic rate of tension rises. Interestingly, their win rate is strongest on Fridays and evenings around 6 PM, perhaps when the neurons fire most symbiotically.

Notable Streaks & Rivals

Holding a longest winning streak of 11 games, aleksandrvr has experienced the sweet nectar of chess victory many times. They face a colorful cast of opponents, with amazing 100% win rates against several, though a few—like "snugglebear124" and "boooooffff"—proved more challenging bites in their ecosystem.

Fun Fact

Much like DNA strands twining and untwining, aleksandrvr's games wind up not too short to miss the story, nor too long to lose the plot—averaging about 40 moves per win and nearly 48 moves per loss, a perfect balance of evolutionary chess biology.

With each game, aleksandrvr continues to mutate and evolve, proving that the checkered battlefield is as dynamic and unpredictable as life itself—pinning opponents down one cell pawn at a time!

What you already do well

  • Fearless initiative-play. Your King’s-Gambit win versus Elias_medin shows you can activate every piece and finish attacks quickly.
  • Tactical eye near the enemy king. The mating pattern 14…Rd1+  15…Bc5+ in your win over SSSSSKING was spotted at blitz speed.
  • Comfort in open positions. You handle open files and diagonals better than most sub-600 players. Keep that strength!

Replay a model game (use it as a template)

  • Every move developed a new piece or secured the king.
  • No piece was moved twice before castling.
  • Only after completing development did you open the centre with 11.e5.

Biggest improvement areas

1. Time management

Four of your last five defeats were on time.

  • “30-second rule”. If a single move costs more than 30 s, play the safest reasonable option instead of chasing perfection.
  • Play 10|0 games and aim to finish with at least 1 : 30 left. This trains you to move faster in familiar positions.
  • Practise pre-moves only in forced recaptures to save seconds without blundering.

2. A steadier opening repertoire

  • With White: keep the King’s Gambit for fun, but build a “safety” line such as the Italian Game (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4).
  • With Black vs 1.e4: consider the Petrov or Scandinavian to sidestep tricky gambits like the Danish Gambit.
  • Memorise the first 6–7 moves and the main ideas rather than every variation.

3. Tactical cleanliness

Missed forks and loose pieces cost material in several games.

  • Solve 20–30 puzzles daily, concentrating on forks, pins and skewers.
  • After each game ask: “Which of my pieces was last left undefended unnecessarily?” This builds board awareness.

4. Endgame confidence

  • Practise king + rook vs king mate until you can finish in under 30 s.
  • Learn the “square rule” and opposition in pawn endings – they appear surprisingly often when the clock is low.

February goals

  1. Complete 30 rapid (10|0+) games with ≤ 3 time forfeits.
  2. Achieve 1159 (2021-02-20) + 50 by sticking to your new openings.
  3. Finish 600 puzzles at ≥ 65 % accuracy.

Final encouragement

Your fearless style is a huge asset. Blend it with sharper clock control and a slightly tighter defence, and breaking 800 will come quickly. Enjoy the journey, Aleksandr!
