BrokeAviator: The Sky's the Limit (and Sometimes the Ceiling)
Meet BrokeAviator, a chess enthusiast with a flight plan that’s as unpredictable as their rating history. Taking off with a peak daily rating of 876 back in April 2020, this player has charted a rollercoaster journey through the skies of 600s and 700s, proving that even in turbulence, passion fuels the engines.
Flying Through Openings
Favored maneuvers include the King's Pawn Opening with a respectable takeoff success rate of ~54%, and the crafty Bird's Opening Dutch Variation, unbeaten in their two forays. Down in the daily tank with the Philidor Defense, things have been a bit rocky (22% win rate), but hey, every pilot has their challenging weather.
Flight Log & Stats
- Total Daily Games: 113 (49 wins, 60 losses, 4 draws) - the skies can be tough!
- Blitz Games: Fewer but frantic (1 win out of 5), showing a liking for calm cruising over high-speed dogfights.
- Longest Winning Streak: A soaring 6 games - steady hands at the controls.
- Longest Losing Streak: A humbling 5 games - no landing without a bumpy descent.
- Preferred Combat Hours: Oddly enough, the 1 AM slot is when BrokeAviator’s engines really roar with a 100% win rate, suggesting midnight oil and caffeine fuel many victories.
Playing Style & Personality
Known for not resigning early (only 1.56% early resignation rate), BrokeAviator battles until the last pawn. With an average of 50 moves per win and 70 moves per loss, endurance and persistence are their specialties – the marathon runner in a world of sprinters.
A notable comeback rate of 62% suggests that when things look bleak, this player’s resilience kicks into overdrive. Their tilt factor is modest (5), so don’t expect tantrums in the cockpit—just a steady grind back toward steadier skies.
Memorable Battles
One standout victory came against “RoboticPawn” on January 12, 2021, with a sleek checkmate using the Italian Game (Two Knights Defense). Despite some tough losses to the same opponent, including a dramatic late-game checkmate, BrokeAviator’s persistence never wavered.
Friends and Foes
Frequent sparring partners include “roboticpawn” (72 games, tough rival), and a favorite ally turned foe “brct5e,” against whom BrokeAviator boasts an enviable 85% win rate. Clearly, they thrive on competition as much as on the thrill of victory.
Bottom Line
BrokeAviator is a chess pilot navigating the cloudscape of beginner to intermediate play with heart, humor, and a dash of late-night magic. Each game is a new flight plan, each opponent a new airspace, and while the landings are sometimes rough, the journey is always worth it.
Always ready to take off again, BrokeAviator reminds us that in chess, as in flying, sometimes you just have to keep your wings level and aim for the horizon.
