Profile of BetterThanU2010
Meet BetterThanU2010, a chess warrior whose online nickname perfectly captures their unyielding spirit – whether or not they've proven it is up for debate! With a rapid rating steadfast around 1600, and a blitz/ bullet rating soaring above 2000, BetterThanU2010 throws themselves into every time control with gusto, and occasionally a resignation or two.
Playing Style and Stats
BetterThanU2010 is a fighter rather than a quitter, sporting a 0% early resignation rate. They play long, dramatic fights that average around 75 moves per game, proving they either love chess marathons or simply can’t decide when to call it quits. An endgame aficionado, this player reaches the final stages in over 80% of their games, a testament to patience or stubbornness depending on the side you ask.
While the rapid format has been a tough battlefield (0 wins, 14 losses, and 2 draws), blitz and bullet formats are where BetterThanU2010 shines:
- Blitz: 3 wins, 1 loss, and 4 draws, with a peak rating of 2030 — watch out!
- Bullet: The real blast zone, winning 5 out of 6 games and hitting a peak rating of 2035.
Favorite Openings
A lover of the King’s Fianchetto Opening in bullet games, BetterThanU2010 has an impeccable 100% win rate here, including Sicilian Invitation and Symmetrical variations — proving those bishops on the long diagonals really bring the firepower. In blitz, they show versatility with wins in the Caro-Kann Panov Attack and King's Head Opening, while in rapid, the Sicilian Najdorf English Attack has been a puzzle with no wins so far. Practice makes perfect, right?
Memorable Matches & Psychological Traits
BetterThanU2010's comeback rate is impressive at 62.5%, showing gritty determination even when down in material, but their win rate after losing a piece sadly hovers around 19%. With a tilt factor of 5, they keep cool most of the time, and their best time to play is at 1 AM — just don’t ask what's fueled by that late-night caffeine.
They tend to perform slightly better when playing against weaker opponents, boasting an 85.7% win rate there, but the grandmaster-level foes like aoitsukibluemoon remain an elusive nemesis (0 wins in 16 encounters).
Highlight Reel
The most recent victory was a graceful endgame victory sealed by resignation — patience rewarded! Clutch moments also include wins by checkmate and on time, proving BetterThanU2010 never gives up until the clock strikes zero or the king says "checkmate!"
Summary
In summary, BetterThanU2010 embodies a determined, late-night chess enthusiast with a penchant for long endgames, tactical comebacks, and relentless pursuit of victory in fast chess formats. While the rapid times may bring frustrations, their blitz and bullet performances leave opponents muttering, "Hmm, BetterThanU2010 might actually be better than us... sometimes."
