Profile Summary: Bopper400
Meet Bopper400, a resilient and strategic online chess enthusiast whose journey through the 64 squares has been anything but dull. Starting around 2020, Bopper400’s rating dance is a captivating story of early rapid fluctuations, a testament to a player sharpening their claws in the chaotic world of online blitz and rapid chess.
With a peak rapid rating of 1036 achieved back in April 2020 and a current strong standing near 912 as of mid-2025, Bopper400 showcases a steady climb peppered with both triumphant wins and humbling losses. If patience is a virtue, this player has mastered it—boasting an average of 55+ moves per win, proving they love to grind out details in long battles rather than quick-fire skirmishes.
Some highlights from the battlefield:
- Overall Rapid record: 187 wins, 152 losses, and 22 draws—fighting fiercely with a decent 51.8% win rate, mostly under the cloak of their Top Secret opening.
- An almost comical 100% win rate against some opponents (sorry no mercy for them!), balanced by a respectable comeback rate of nearly 80%—because giving up is not in their nature.
- Known to resign early about 4.3% of the time, suggesting a mix of pragmatism and humor about the inevitable blunders we all make.
- 24/7 Never-sleep mode: Bopper400’s psychological “best time to play” is literally midnight—maybe they channel the quiet of night to sharpen their tactical senses or just enjoy spooky checkmates.
Bopper400 is not just about numbers though—they also have a sweet side, using an enigmatic “Top Secret” opening for the majority of games, keeping opponents guessing and probably driving commentators slightly mad. When switching to blitz and bullet formats, their performance dips a bit, which might just mean they are the kind of player who prefers thoughtful strategizing over lightning reflexes.
Recent games illustrate their sharpness, including a memorable checkmate victory in June 2025 against "doom666123" featuring a quiet but lethal endgame assault—and yes, a sneaky little queen checkmate move (#79) to seal the deal amidst a marathon 80-move duel.
All in all, Bopper400 embodies the spirit of chess: a blend of calculated risks, stubborn resilience, and a dash of mystery. If you want to face a player who loves their long, drawn-out endgames peppered with comebacks and rarely throws in the towel without a good fight, challenge Bopper400. Just don’t expect them to play the same opening twice—some secrets are meant to be kept!
