Will Modern Day Hercules - The Chess Titan

Also known by the fearsome username blackcaviar, Will Modern Day Hercules is not your average chess warrior; he's a titan throwing pawns like thunderbolts since 2013. Starting from humble bullet beginnings with a modest 1317 rating, Hercules stormed through the years, maxing out an impressive 2059 bullet rating by 2017 and never looking back.

Game Style and Strengths

When it comes to fast-paced battles, Will dominates the bullet and blitz arenas with a combined winning tally of over 3600 games! Known for launching fierce attacks using openings like the Grob Opening (where he boasts a nearly 58% win rate!) and the unpredictable Indian Game, he keeps his opponents guessing. His knack for mountin’ comebacks is legendary, rocking a stunning 78% comeback rate and a perfect 100% win rate after sacrificing a piece—truly a Hercules among mere mortals.

Psychological Warfare

But even Hercules has his Achilles’ heel: a tilt factor of 35. That’s right, the god of chess is only human, occasionally grumbling under pressure—but with a rated versus casual win difference of nearly 26%, he knows how to bring his A-game when it counts.

Notable Matches

Some recent clashes include his victories against YJChess26 and adriv81, featuring tactical displays worthy of legend. One highlight game saw Will dancing through the Sicilian Defense, crafting a dazzling path to victory against a 2306-rated adversary. Yet, even Hercules faces defeat at times, as in a close encounter with kamranABD, reminding us all that even the mightiest knight can stumble.

Performance Highlights

  • Longest winning streak: An awe-inspiring 51 games!
  • Thrives particularly well on Tuesdays and Thursdays with win rates close to 57%
  • Peak Blitz and Daily ratings hover around the 1945 and 1651 marks respectively
  • Average game length indicates strategic depth: roughly 60 moves to win and 65 moves before loss

In Summary

Will Modern Day Hercules may not wield a physical club, but his chess prowess crushes opponents with Herculean force. Whether he's slaying opponents in bullet speed duels or calmly dispatching foes in daily games, he's a grandmaster of grit, steadfast in his quest for checkmate glory. If chess had Olympian gods, Will would be front and center—just watch out when he declars "game over" because he's likely plotting his next Herculean feat!
