  • Peak Blitz Rating: An eye-popping 2849 achieved in September 2024 – clearly a force to be reckoned with when the clock is ticking!
  • Bullet Mastery: Held a peak bullet rating over 2660, showing lightning-fast calculation and nerves of steel.
  • Rapid and Daily Ratings: A solid rapid peak at 2092 and a strong daily rating nearing 1900 demonstrate well-rounded abilities across time controls.

Playing Style & Personality

Artemiki is not just any player; this is a tactician with a 75.9% comeback rate after setbacks, proving resilience worthy of a chess hero’s tale. With an average 60 moves per win, Artemiki enjoys long battles, savoring endgame complexities—62.3% of games dive deep into these thrilling finales. White pieces tend to bring an edge (+54% win rate), but even with Black, Artemiki holds ground firmly.

Beware if you play Artemiki late at night around 1 AM—their best time of day to play according to stats—when tactical awareness spikes and the board comes alive with possibilities. The tilt factor of 40 warns opponents that despite moments of frustration, this player bounces back with a vengeance. Sometimes Artemiki resigns early (5.75% early resignation rate), perhaps saving energy for the next brilliant clash.

Favorite Openings (and secret weapons)

In Blitz, Artemiki favors the mysterious and highly effective “Top Secret” opening, wielding it in over 300 games with nearly a 63% win rate – shrouded in enigma and excellent results! When it’s Bullet time, the “Van t Kruijs Opening” reigns supreme, boasting a 69%+ win rate. Rapid games see a preference for classical lines like the Philidor Defense and Giuoco Piano variations, displaying a love for solid yet dynamic play.

Statistical Bragging Rights

  • Over 2,000 wins in Blitz alone - that's a lot of checkmates and celebrations!
  • Bullet wins tally to nearly 2,600, revealing blistering speed and bulletproof nerves.
  • Engages fiercely on Saturdays and Fridays, with win rates approaching or exceeding 55% on several days.

Most Recent Battles

Artemiki’s chess journey is filled with triumphs and the occasional humbling defeat. Recent games showcase victories by resignation, highlighting strategic dominance that convinces opponents to throw in the towel. Even losses are hard-fought, often ending in dramatic checkmate sequences. The guy/girl/person behind the username knows how to make every game a story worth telling.

Fun Fact

When Artemiki isn’t plotting world domination one pawn at a time, they probably enjoy the satisfaction of winning by resignation so decisively that the opponent contemplates their life choices. After all, in chess and life, it’s all about knowing when to strike and when to gracefully bow out.

In short, Artemiki Lebedev is a formidable, cunning, and sometimes cheeky chess fighter, climbing the ranks with patience, passion, and a wicked tactical eye!

Overview of Recent Performance

Artemiki, your recent games demonstrate solid fighting spirit and a willingness to play dynamically in the Chess960 format. You secured victories by capitalizing on opponent mistakes and maintaining pressure in the midgame. However, the rating data indicates a recent dip, signaling some areas to focus on for improvement.

What You Are Doing Well

  • Active Piece Play: In your wins, you displayed strong piece activity, especially knights and queen maneuvers, which helped you create threats and tactical opportunities early on.
  • Opening Variety: Your use of diverse openings like the Grob, Polish Opening, and flexible pawn pushes shows creativity and adaptability, important traits in Chess960.
  • Capitalizing on Opponent Errors: The ability to convert opponent inaccuracies into wins is a key strength. Maintaining alertness to tactics pays dividends.
  • Endgame Technique: You demonstrated competent technique converting advantages under time pressure, especially in your last winning game where you pushed with precise moves.

Areas for Improvement

  • Clock Management: Multiple games ended with time losses or resignations under time pressure. Sharpen your speed and time allocation to avoid rushed mistakes.
  • Defensive Awareness: In losses, you occasionally missed defensive resources or succumbed to aggressive opposing tactics. Work on identifying threats earlier to improve your defensive resilience.
  • Opening Stability: With a diverse opening repertoire, aim to deepen your understanding of key structures and plan transitions to the middle game, especially in less familiar Chess960 positions.
  • Consistency in Quality of Moves: Recent negative rating trends suggest some slip-ups in calculation or judgement. Focus on clarity of thought even in fast-paced blitz to reduce unforced errors.

Suggested Focus and Training Tips

  • Practice Rapid Decision-Making: To improve clock management, simulate blitz matches with strict timing and practice standard tactical exercises under time constraints.
  • Study Key Positional Concepts: Deepen your grasp of pawn structures, piece coordination, and typical imbalances that arise in Chess960 to navigate unfamiliar positions with confidence.
  • Analyze Critical Game Moments: Review losses to pinpoint where your defense broke down or tactical oversights occurred. Use this to build pattern recognition for similar future situations.
  • Opening Repertoire Refinement: Select a few favorite openings to explore in depth. Understand thematic plans and typical middlegame ideas for better transition in your matches.
  • Endgame Drills: Continue practicing fundamental endgames, focusing on converting material or positional edges effectively, especially under time pressure.

Staying Positive and Moving Forward

Despite a recent rating decline, your positive 1-month rating trend slope suggests an upswing in form is beginning. Maintain a disciplined training routine focusing on quality practice, and don’t hesitate to revisit foundational skills. Keep leveraging your creativity, and your performance will stabilize and improve again.
