Boikhutso Modongo (Boimod) - Woman International Master

Meet Boikhutso Modongo, known to friends and foes alike as Boimod, a Woman International Master whose chess adventures are as thrilling as a rollercoaster ride through the kingdom of 64 squares. Though their rapid rating journey in 2020 had its ups and downs (from a humble 1066 to a proud peak of 1737), Boimod’s spirit on the board is anything but average.

With a knack for tenacious comebacks — boasting a 60% comeback rate and a perfect 100% win rate after losing a piece — Boimod embodies resilience. Sure, their winning streaks cap out at two, but often, it’s not about the length of the streak, but the drama and style in the plays between.

Playing Style & Personality

Boimod’s games tend to be marathons rather than sprints, winning on average after nearly 60 moves. They favor a battle of endurance, often taking their time to steer games into deep endgames, which make up nearly 30% of their matches. While sometimes early resignations sneak in (about 8%), they prefer to face the storm rather than flee.

On the Clock

Whether it's blitz with a blazing peak rating of 1769 or rapid games where their average playfulness shines at 1276, Boimod’s chess clock ticks to their unique rhythm. Interestingly, Thursday afternoons around 12 and 14:00 hours seem to be their lucky hours, where win rates soar up to 50%.

Tactical Feats and Quirks

Legend has it Boimod’s psychological “tilt factor” is impressively low at just 7%, and they’ve shown a solid 29% win rate difference favoring rated over casual games — proving they bring their A-game when it truly counts.

Opponents beware: while Boimod may struggle against some (looking at you, jenni64), they absolutely dominate others like nepali63, borvel1, and hjaswal0 with a clean 100% win record. Never underestimate a player who knows when to sacrifice a pawn—and when to sacrifice pride for style.

In summary, Boikhutso “Boimod” Modongo is a chess player who blends tactical rawness with a touch of unpredictable flair — a worthy opponent and a delightful personality on and off the 64 squares.
