Profile Summary: bedminson

Meet bedminson, a player who dances gracefully between the ups and downs of the chessboard, currently wielding a Rapid rating holding steady around 520 and a Blitz rating hovering near 126. Not your average grandmaster-in-training, bedminson is the embodiment of persistence, battling through a rollercoaster of wins and losses that would make even the most stoic fans nervously chuckle.

In Rapid chess, bedminson has fought 312 games with a razor-thin margin between wins (148) and losses (146), plus a handful of draws to keep things interesting. Blitz games are a different beast, with a tougher record but flashes of brilliance — notably perfect win rates in defenses like the Philidor Defense and its Nimzowitsch variation. Yes, bedminson knows how to surprise opponents with fall-back tricks, proving that sometimes defense is the best offense... or at least the most fun way to frustrate adversaries.

Tactical awareness is bedminson's secret sauce: a comeback rate of 77.54% shows never backing down until the last move, even if it’s often countered with a “Please resign!” from a weary opponent. Bedminson isn’t afraid to resign early when the chips are down (about 9.33% early resignations), but also knows how to drag a game out to an average of roughly 53 moves—talk about stamina!

Opening repertoire is eclectic and sometimes cheeky. The Center Game is a crowd favorite with an impressive 80% win rate in Rapid games, while variations of the Scandinavian Defense and the Englund Gambit show a willingness to walk less-traveled paths—ideal for players who enjoy keeping rivals guessing, or just love a bit of mischief before the endgame.

Bedminson’s psychological profile reveals a curious mix: a tilt factor of 13 suggests occasional moments of frustration (who doesn't?), balanced by a highest focus hour at 1:00 AM — the perfect time for nocturnal brilliance (or forgetting where you put your knight). When facing opponents with higher ratings, bedminson sometimes struggles, but dominates matches against lower-rated foes, showcasing both humility and a competitive spirit.

Among most-played opponents, bedminson has a history of close battles with players like meiscool9999 and mhigo2, holding a 100% win rate against some and a fair split in others—a promise to never let a rivalry go stale. Recent highlight games include a crafty win by time against fj_w and a confident checkmate over yardsou7, demonstrating both the endurance and sharp finishing skills that define bedminson’s style.

Bedminson: mastering the art of comeback, proving chess is as much about character as clever moves.
