Player Profile: ANDREI-221
Known on the chessboard as ANDREI-221, this player is a remarkable blend of tenacity, tactical depth, and occasional bouts of “what just happened?!” moments that make chess as thrilling as a roller coaster ride.
Rating & Performance Journey
ANDREI-221's blitz rating has seen a roller-coaster trajectory. Starting off at a respectable 1262 in early 2024, there was a dramatic dip (we’re talking from 1262 down to 177 in March 2024, talk about a wild ride!) before steadily climbing to a steady 419 by mid-2025. Rapid and daily ratings also tell tales of growth and experimentation, with rapid rating hitting 537 recently and daily peaking at 1600 back in 2024.
Playing Style
With an average of around 56 moves per win and 63 moves per loss, ANDREI-221 is not the type to rush into things — they savor the fight right into the endgame, which appears in a solid 64% of their matches. The player’s tactical awareness shines with a comeback rate of over 69%, proving that even when down a piece, don't count ANDREI-221 out! However, early resignations do happen (nearly 5% of the time), probably due to occasional frustrations or “I probably blundered, haven’t I?” moments.
Favorite Openings
Anyone looking for a master of the King’s Fianchetto Opening (with nearly 1,652 games) is in good hands. Also admired are the Owens Defense, Modern Defense, and the surprisingly cheeky Van ’t Kruijs Opening where ANDREI-221 boasts a modestly superior win rate over 52%.
Battlefield Psychology
ANDREI-221 has a tilt factor of 11 — the chess equivalent of “I swear I’m fine” after losing a queen on move 10. Their prime time to wreak havoc is at 5 AM, the legendary hour where dreams and pawns collide. Win rates tick upwards during the early morning hours—must be all that coffee or quiet surroundings!
Wins, Losses, and Famous Battles
With a near-even split of wins (3645) and losses (3781) in blitz, PLUS enough draws to keep opponents guessing (294!), ANDREI-221 epitomizes the relentless fighter. One recent victory was a dazzling checkmate after promoting a pawn to queen and cutting off the enemy king’s escape. Yet, losses aren’t foreign—they tend to stoke the comeback fire that makes this player worth watching.
Quirks & Highlights
- Comeback King: Over 69% comeback rate after facing setbacks.
- Even-Steven: Win rate doesn’t wildly favor playing white (48.37%) or black (46.05%), showing balanced skill regardless of color.

- Time Warp Player: Best performance at 5 AM — nocturnal grandmaster in the making?
- Longest Winning Streak: An impressive 13 games!
