Biography of Chess Player: AniaCzyrko
Meet AniaCzyrko, a tenacious chess enthusiast whose games tell a story of resilience, experimentation, and the eternal quest for improvement. Although her rating numbers might not yet have reached grandmaster heights, her passion for the game is clear and her dedication undeniable.
Rating Journey & Play Style
Starting off with modest Blitz ratings around 380 in 2021, Ania has steadily improved, reaching nearly 590 by 2025 — a quantum leap by any standard! In Rapid chess, she’s even more consistent, hovering around the 590 mark in recent years. Her win rates suggest a fighter’s spirit: while the losses outnumber wins, Ania’s never shy away from complex positions and frequent endgames, as nearly half of her Rapid games go beyond the opening. (Clearly, she likes a good saga!) With an early resignation rate under 7%, she prefers to battle to the end rather than throw in the towel — because why give up when you might still pull a queen out of your sleeve?
Opening Repertoire: The Element of Surprise
Ania’s openings are as eclectic as a grandmaster buffet. She’s ventured into the Reti Opening’s Mustang Defense to great effect in Blitz (100% win rate in that one game—always betting on the underdog!), and her Three Knights Opening also shines. Her love for the Queens Pawn Opening and Sicilian Defense shows a willingness to dance on both sides of the chessboard, although success here is more mixed. In Rapid, her “Top Secret” opening was played eight times—mysterious, indeed—with a quirky 25% win rate; perhaps she’s guarding some groundbreaking gambit for the perfect moment.
A Record of Battles, Wins, and Learning
With a Blitz record of 2 wins to 10 losses and a slightly better Rapid record of 11 wins, 36 losses, and a couple of draws, Ania’s journey is a classic tale of ups, downs, and everything in between. Against her most frequent rival mariaa2, the scoreboard reads 22.22% wins — tough competition, but every game is a story and a chance to adapt. Against others like twelvi12, xrosapl, and zmumb69, Ania enjoys a clean 100% win rate, showing she's perfectly capable of dominating when the stars align.
Moments of Glory & Learning
Despite some stinging losses, Ania’s recorded some spectacular finishes, including a memorable victory with the Reti Opening Mustang Defense (even if victory was claimed by her opponent shortly after!) and a sharp finish in a Three-Check variant where she faced risky tactical struggles. Her longest winning streak stands at 2 games — a small but proud run of brilliance. And when the chips are down, Ania refuses to fold, showing an impressive 38.46% comeback rate and a perfect 100% win rate after losing a piece — resilience is definitely her middle name.
Fun Facts & Quirks

- Sometimes, she gets a little tilt at 7%, but hey, who doesn’t after a tough loss?
In Conclusion
AniaCzyrko’s chess journey is one of grit, growth, and the occasional chessboard comedy. Not every game ends in triumph, but every game ends in learning.
