Алексей С. — The Relentless Chess Warrior
Meet Алексей С., a battle-hardened tactician on the 64 squares who’s been duking it out from the bullet blazes to the rapid hustles. Rated around 400-ish in Bullet and hitting a spicy peak of 848 in Rapid by 2025, Алексей is definitely not your casual coffee-shop player — unless the coffee comes with an extra shot of adrenaline.
Playing Style & Personality
With an Early Resignation Rate of just over 2%, Алексей isn’t one to give up easily — unless, of course, the coffee runs out. The average moves per win hover near 39, revealing a player who enjoys a solid grind but is not afraid to rush decisive tactical flurries.
His Comeback Rate is an impressive 48%, and remarkably, Алексей boasts a 100% win rate after losing a piece — clearly, fighting back from material deficits is his secret sauce. There’s a hint of psychological drama too, with a modest tilt factor of 11; we like to think he just occasionally mutters “rookie blunder” at himself when the going gets tough.
Favorite Openings
Alex1984s has a love affair with the Scandinavian Defense, having played it nearly 600 times in Bullet games with a solid win rate of about 51%. For variety, he sprinkles in the Queen's Pawn Chigorin Variation and the cheeky Englund Gambit—because who doesn’t enjoy a gambit that keeps opponents on their toes?
Strengths & Quirks
- Blitz & Bullet Veterans: Nearly 3500 Bullet games and over 280 Blitz matches show Алексей’s dedication to the fast and furious formats.
- Strategic Endgames: Nearly a quarter (24.38%) of his games reach the endgame, indicating patience and solid technique.
- Time of Day Play: Peak win rates spike around 1 PM to 4 PM, with a wild 80% win rate around midnight — a true night owl who possibly fuels his sessions on midnight snacks and caffeine.
- Opponent Record: He has a love-hate relationship with some players — 100% win rates against many, while others have managed to keep him in check. A true warrior’s tale.
Fun Facts
Despite grinding thousands of games, Alex1984s still has a few quirks, like an average loss length longer than his wins — maybe pondering the “what-ifs” a bit too long! His highest burst in Blitz was 1135 back in 2020, showing the peak blitz beast in his arsenal.
In the end, Алексей is that kind of player who might lose a piece unexpectedly, smile, and then somehow turn the tables — a true chess warrior with a hint of madness and a lot of heart.
