Profile Summary: Bala271262

Bala271262 is a chess enthusiast with a fascinating journey through the ranks and styles of online play. While not quite a grandmaster (yet), this player certainly knows how to keep the board interesting.

Starting from humble beginnings in 2021 with Rapid ratings around 740 and Blitz at a modest 722, Bala271262 has shown gradual improvement and an increasing appetite for rapid gameplay. The peak Rapid rating touched 1135 in 2023 before settling around 883 in 2024, proving that even chess warriors have their off days.

With an average win rate of ~48% across Rapid and Blitz, and a comically relentless Comeback Rate of 74%, Bala271262 is never one to give up—even when the chess gods seem determined to humble them. In fact, their Win Rate After Losing a Piece is a perfect 100%, which suggests an uncanny ability to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat, or maybe an opponent who underestimates a desperate foe.

This player's style is endgame-centric, spending over 64% of games reaching the battlefield of kings and pawns. Interestingly, the average number of moves is quite high (~60 moves per win or loss), which means no quick smashes—Bala271262 likes to make it a marathon. Expect lots of maneuvering, deep strategy, and occasional hair-pulling.

Fair warning: the Tilt Factor is at 12, meaning when the tilt hits, it hits like a rogue knight fork! Still, Bala271262 balances that out with a low early resignation rate (~4%), showing grit and perseverance.

When playing as White, Bala271262 scores just under 50% wins, but the Black pieces are slightly less lucky with a 46% success rate. Current winning streaks hint at someone warming up, with a longest streak of 14 wins and currently sitting on 2 consecutive victories.

Time-wise, this player is most deadly in the early morning hours, boasting win rates over 50% between 1am and 6am, and slightly vulnerable during evening distractions. And Sunday afternoons at 3pm are just slightly less kind, so maybe avoid challenging Bala271262 then.

Opponents beware—Bala271262 has a rich archive of opponents, with some rivalry history against krishna818 and thejkalyan. Plus, their Top Secret opening repertoire keeps challengers on their toes!

All in all, Bala271262 epitomizes the fun-loving, determined, and slightly unpredictable spirit of the online chess community—always ready for an exciting game, a thrilling comeback, and maybe a funny meme in the chat.
