Quang Vũ

Quang Vũ (aka baoquang13)

Quang Vũ, known online as baoquang13, is an ambitious rapid chess player whose journey through the 64 squares is more thrilling than your average rollercoaster ride. With a peak rapid rating of 746 achieved in April 2025, Quang has proven he’s not just throwing pawns around — he’s strategically hunting for those sweet checkmates.

Chess Odyssey

Starting strong with a perfect 1/1 win in January 2025, Quang's rapid rating graph resembles a charming rollercoaster, soaring to 746 in April before settling around the 400-600 range in subsequent months. This signals a player who loves both the highs of victory and the thrill of a challenging comeback.

Opening Repertoire

When it comes to openings, Quang is a bit of a stylist and an opportunist. The Three Knights Opening is his fortress with a flawless 100% win rate over 4 games — a true stronghold! The cunning Scandinavian Defense Closed follows close behind with a 75% win rate. However, some adventures with the Vienna Game Falkbeer Variation and Scotch Game left a bit to be desired (0% wins there), showing even chess warriors have their chinks in the armor.

Record & Stats

Quang’s rapid record sums up to 29 wins and 45 losses. Losses may outnumber wins, but each loss just fuels Quang’s fiery determination (and occasional tilt — tilted 8 out of 100, so nothing to worry about!). Never one for quick quits, he resigns early only 11% of the time and loves grinding through endgames about 19% of his matches.

Playing Style & Personality

An average of around 32 moves per game shows Quang doesn’t rush; he's in it for the long tactical dance. The comeback rate is solid at 55%, proving he doesn’t give up easily after losing material — though he wins only about 29% of the time after dropping a piece. His white pieces win about 37% of the time, while he’s a slightly fiercer opponent playing black (42% wins).

Strangely enough, Quang performs best in the afternoon hours, especially around 14:00, where he boasts a 100% win rate — clearly, that’s prime time for brain power and sneaky traps!

Recent Highlights

One of Quang’s most delicious finishes came in a game against tarek1o3 where he pulled off a cheeky early checkmate with the queen in just 5 moves. Brilliant stuff! Despite some tough recent losses, including a time loss and resignation against top-notch opponents, Quang keeps bouncing back like the true chess gladiator he is.
