Rating & Performance

BeGood505’s chess journey is a rollercoaster of determination, growth, and plenty of exciting drama. Starting at a humble rapid rating of just 222 in mid-2023, they've rallied to reach a peak rapid rating of 714 by early 2025. Similarly, their blitz rating soared to a respectable 673 in May 2025. Their rapid games boast a solid win record (238 wins out of 480+ games), while in the blitz arena, over 1100 wins highlight a relentless spirit even when the clock ticks down.

Playing Style & Tactics

Fast moves and fierce tactics characterize BeGood505’s style. With an average of 58 moves to victory, they love a good-long grind rather than quick checkmates. Their endgame frequency is quite high at 65%, showing a gritty determination to squeeze every advantage until the bitter end. A notable comeback rate of 65% shows resilience when down a piece (although coming back to win after losing a piece happens 40% of the time), proving resilience is their middle name.

Favorite Openings

With roughly 470 rapid games under their belt using the intriguingly named “Top Secret” opening cluster, BeGood505 maintains a respectable 49% win rate. However, they also shine bright with variants like the Bishop’s Opening Berlin Defense and Boi Variation, both boasting a 100% win record (albeit with fewer games, but who's counting?). In blitz games, the Bishop’s Opening and the French Defense offer favored battlegrounds where tactical skirmishes often end in their favor.

Psychology & Quirks

Playing their best chess mostly bright and early—especially around 7 AM—BeGood505 knows when the coffee kicks in and the brain is sharpest. With a tilt factor of 8, occasional frustrations pop up, but nothing a few deep breaths (or a brisk walk) can't fix. Their early resignation rate is a low 1.43%, so they usually fight to the last pawn without giving up prematurely. White pieces tend to treat them a bit better (nearly 50% wins) than black (46%), which is probably why they always volunteer to play White in friendly matches.

Notable Recent Battles

In their most recent thrilling victory, BeGood505 executed a textbook checkmate in a rapid battle on June 2, 2025, showcasing precise play in the Philidor Defense. Despite some recent losses, including a tough game against mises_8010, their fighting spirit and ability to lock down the win when it counts remain unshaken.

Fun Fact

Although the name suggests a player of moderate skill, BeGood505’s stats tell a tale of grit, occasional genius, and a delightfully stubborn approach to chess. Whether you meet them at the board or online, prepare for a game full of surprises, laughter from offbeat moves, and a player who truly embodies that adage: "It's not just about being good—it's about being BeGood505."
