CharlesThe8th: Chess Enthusiast Extraordinaire

Meet CharlesThe8th, a player who’s been steadily rising through the ranks on the chessboard since 2022. Starting off with a humble Rapid rating of just 413, Charles has now skyrocketed to over 1000 in Rapid in 2024 — talk about a comeback fit for a royal dynasty!

Rapid Ruler

Charles dominates Rapid chess like a true monarch, boasting an impressive win rate of 53.37% over an astounding 802 games with his secret opening moves (that he’ll never tell you). Over 428 wins, 335 losses, and 39 draws later, this player keeps pushing boundaries with a longest winning streak of 13 games — a streak fit for a king, or at least a fiercely determined pawn.

The Blitz and Bullet Battles

But don't think Charles is just about slow, calculated strikes. His Blitz rating peaked at 905 in 2023, and though it took a slight dip, he’s still a formidable bullet fighter with a max rating of 737 and a solid 54.6% win rate. Whether it's lightning-fast puzzles or blitz skirmishes, CharlesThe8th’s fingers fly almost as fast as his thoughts (or at least he tries!).

Playing Style & Humor

With a psychological tilt factor of 8, Charles admits he has his off days — like when the pieces just don’t obey, or when the coffee runs out mid-match. Yet, his remarkable tactical awareness shines through: when the going gets tough, Charles gets going with a 71.73% comeback rate and an astonishing 100% win rate after losing a piece (because why give up when you’re an eighth in line to the throne?).

When Does Charles Play?

Apparently, the best moves happen in the afternoons and evenings, with a peak win rate of 81.82% at 4 PM and solid battles won late into the night. Weekdays, especially Tuesday and Wednesday, seem to be his prime conquest days.

Fun (and Fatal) Opponents

Charles has a love-hate relationship with some players: he’s undefeated against fermmm and crepuscularism, while somehow never scoring against vincy1991 and alexchess179. But hey, even kings have their rivals!

Summary

Is CharlesThe8th a chess king in disguise? Possibly. With a curious blend of persistence, secret openings, and a willingness to fight back even when down material, Charles brings both strategy and drama to every game. Watch out — this player might just crown themselves the monarch of your next match!
