Demitrius Moore: The Grandmaster of Comebacks (Almost)

Demitrius Moore, known online as ChiefScreeno, is that rare breed of chess player who thrives on suspense and dramatic reversals. With a rapid rating peaking at 695 in 2025, Demitrius has battled across nearly 700 rapid games showing a penchant for both genius and occasional chaos.

The Playstyle

Demetrius’s style is a bit like a thriller movie – expect early resignations about 6% of the time (perhaps to save dignity), but also an impressive willingness to fight to the end, with an endgame frequency at a solid 57%. His games tend to stretch out, averaging 62 moves per win, suggesting a player who loves a long strategic duel rather than quick kills.

Opening Moves... and Sometimes Missteps

He’s got a favorite bag of tricks from the King’s Pawn Opening (with a respectable 51% win rate) to some cheekier choices like the Sicilian Defense Bowdler Attack, where he boasts his highest win rate of 62%. However, the Van't Kruijs Opening is a mystery even to him, with a dismal 28% success rate—perhaps better left for casual games only.

When the Chips Are Down

One thing that really sets Demitrius apart is his tactical tenacity. He has a staggering 100% win rate after losing a piece, making him the ultimate comeback kid. Opponents beware: if you think grabbing a pawn is the end, you’re only halfway through the story.

The Record Books

With 329 wins against 320 losses from rapid games, Demitrius walks the fine line between genius and gambler. His longest winning streak stretches to an impressive nine games, and his current streak shows he’s still hungry for more. His rated play tends to outperform his casual encounters by a whopping 48%, proving ChiefScreeno means business when stakes rise.

Daily Battles & Opponents

Although he’s practically a novice in daily mode with only two games played and two losses, Demitrius’s true arena is rapid chess. Among his many opponents, some have tasted pure defeat—he’s claimed 100% wins against opponents like terrykaitara and alexhtrs, while others have shown equal resistance, reminding that chess is a battlefield of wits and luck.

Psychology & Habits

A tilt factor of 9 suggests Demitrius is occasionally prone to frustration, but a comeback rate near 70% balances that out nicely. His best hours are early morning (7 AM and 9 AM with perfect 100% win rates) and late afternoon, so if you want to catch him off guard, maybe challenge him at midnight (where wins hover around 40%).

Wrapping It Up

Demitrius Moore might still be climbing the rating ladder, but with the heart of a lion and the nerves of steel, he’s a player to watch—especially if you enjoy chess games filled with drama, unexpected twists, and the occasional hilarious blunder.
