About the Player
Since 2010, B R has been battling it out with knights, bishops, and queens, steadily sharpening skills from humble beginnings to respectable ratings.

- Peak Rapid Rating: A formidable 1594 achieved in May 2016, showing B R shines when time controls get a bit more generous.
- Bullet High: A lightning-fast peak of 1370 in mid-2022; speed demons beware!

Curious enough, "Queens Pawn Chigorin Variation" and "Owens Defense" show off a crafty side, boasting a neat 75% win rate.
