Profile: bryanliu321
Meet bryanliu321, a chess enthusiast on a quest to conquer the 800 rapid rating barrier – spoiler alert: he’s not far off! Starting out with a modest 355 in rapid during 2023, Bryan steadily climbed to a peak of 809 in 2025, proving that slow and steady (plus a lot of game time) truly wins the race. When not methodically dismantling opponents in rapid games, he dabbles in blitz and bullet chess, with bursts of brilliance that occasionally leave his opponents wondering if the game was rigged or if Bryan just had his morning coffee.
His style? It's a mix of resilience and tactical wizardry. With nearly a 64% comeback rate, bryanliu321 doesn't just give up when down a piece; in fact, he wins every time after losing one (well, almost – the stats say 100%). That’s the kind of player who smiles in the face of danger and probably mutters a confident “checkmate incoming” under his breath.
Psychologically, Bryan keeps his cool with a low tilt factor of 7, though he can be a bit picky with rated versus casual games—a 48% win difference suggests he takes rated matches a tad more seriously... or maybe he just enjoys the thrill of a challenge. His longest winning streak of 12 games reveals a streak of dominance, but currently, the winning streak rests at zero—a perfect reminder that even chess knights need a break.
On openings, bryanliu321 keeps strategies close to the vest, favoring a Top Secret repertoire that nets him a respectable 53%+ win rate across all time controls. Opponents beware: many face a tough time cracking his game plan, especially those who haven't reviewed their bishop moves.
Fun fact: Bryan is a morning and afternoon player, boasting impressive win rates above 50% from 5 AM through 1 PM, and an explosive 70% win rate at 3 PM. Night owls beware—the numbers at 20:00 (8 PM) and 21:00 (9 PM) are suspiciously zero; either Bryan is asleep or plotting his next brilliant comeback.
When it comes to colors, Bryan prefers White pieces, scoring a neat 56% win rate there – but don’t discount his Black games, where he still manages to win nearly half the time.
Off the board, bryanliu321 is probably reconsidering his next move between coffee breaks or secretly admiring his recent victories over tough opponents like michaelliuu and kaspararie, holding a solid 38% and 67% win rate respectively.
In summary, bryanliu321 is the chess player who fights, fights, and then fights some more—in the middle game, in the endgame, and occasionally, even during coffee breaks.
