Hadrien Lecomte, known in the chess world by the mysterious handle bjhhg, is a player who embodies persistence, resilience, and a sprinkle of unpredictability. Starting out in 2023 with a rapid rating rollercoaster ranging from a dizzying 595 all the way down to a humbling 171, Hadrien has proven that chess is much like life — full of ups, downs, and the occasional “Wait, what just happened?” moment.

With a peak blitz rating of 608 and a daily chess high soaring to 859, Hadrien’s versatility across time controls is nothing short of impressive. This is a player who has mastered the art of turning early setbacks into glorious comebacks, boasting a remarkable 72% comeback rate after losing a piece — because giving up? Never heard of it.

When it comes to openings, Hadrien is no stranger to adventure. His favorite battlefield? The King's Pawn Opening, including the sharp King's Knight Variation, where he maintains an enviable 67% win rate. That said, he has a love-hate relationship with the quirky Van't Kruijs Opening, holding a modest 27% win rate — clearly an opening that keeps him on his toes (and his queen nervously pacing).

Hadrien is also an endgame enthusiast, engaging in endgame scenarios more than 40% of the time, savoring the slow dance of strategy until the very last move. His calculated patience pays off with an average game length of roughly 51 moves for wins, proving he’s not in a hurry to checkmate—he likes to build suspense.

Psychologically, Hadrien is a fighter with a tilt factor of only 7 — a calm in the storm, unless it’s 2 AM, his peak playing hour when the stars align and the pieces seem to move on their own. Oddly enough, his best performance window is around the witching hour of chess, 2 AM, when most mortals are dreaming, but he is busy plotting the downfall of his opponents.

His match history shows a nearly balanced run with 262 wins, 245 losses, and a handful of draws in rapid chess — a testament to his dogged determination. With streaks that include a nine-game winning spree, Hadrien demonstrates flashes of brilliance that leave opponents wondering if he’s a casual gamer or a future grandmaster in disguise.

And if you ever doubted his tactical prowess, glance at his recent victories where bold checkmates and strategic resignations reign supreme. Whether it's a fierce mating attack or a sneaky pawn sacrifice, Hadrien’s games are entertaining tales of struggle, triumph, and the occasional “oops” moment.

In short, Hadrien Lecomte is not just a chess player — he's a continual work in progress, crafting victories from losses, and turning each game into a story worth telling, one move at a time.
