Ben Boulton: The Tactical Chess Biologist
Meet Ben Boulton, better known in the chess biosphere as Boultonsfc, a player whose moves evolve like species adapting in the wild. With a chess rating history that reads like a genetic timeline, Ben's bullet games are few but lethal—100% win rate in his only recorded game, making him a king of quick adaptation and swift victories.
Ben's blitz battles have been a bit more of a survival-of-the-fittest scenario, with peaks reaching a respectable 495 in 2024 but also some challenging troughs that suggest he’s still mutating his approach. Despite a rather tough streak in blitz and rapid games, his tactical awareness is nothing short of impressive. His comeback rate is a perfect 100%, showing a capacity for regeneration and resilience when losing material—a true chess chameleon!
Openings? Ben shows a fondness for pushing pawns like a master biochemist experimenting with compounds. His Van 't Kruijs Opening in blitz is a shining example of his precise evolutionary advantage with a 100% win rate, while in rapid chess, he has dabbled successfully in the Alekhine's Defense—a move as tricky and unpredictable as a double helix twist.
Ben’s psychological game is intriguingly stable, boasting a low tilt factor in the stressful heat of battle, keeping his mental DNA intact. His average moves per win hover around 61—taking time to nurture his victories like a good petri dish culture, whilst his losses tend to be swift but not too damaging, hinting at rapid regeneration post-defeat.
Facing diverse opponents such as thelookout3048 and carrefour3000, Ben has selectively favored certain prey with mixed success but shows a consistent ability to bounce back. While his white pieces don't yet sparkle with high win rates, his black pieces have a surprising bite—winning nearly a third of the time.
Whether at 21:00 hours or on a lazy Sunday, Ben's win rates peak, proving he thrives best when the conditions are just right—nature abhors a vacuum, and so does Ben.
In short, Ben Boulton is a chess player in mid-evolution, constantly adapting his style, learning from losses, and ready to metamorphose into a formidable competitor. Keep an eye on this bio-chess phenomenon; his game is definitely alive and kicking!
