Profile Summary: chocolate1982 (aka Chocolate Dark)

Meet chocolate1982, a blitz aficionado who has danced around the chessboard with a fiery passion and a dash of chocolate sweetness. Starting from a modest 1400 rating in 2015, this player has been on an impressive climb, peaking at a blistering 2412 in 2025, proving that hard work and maybe a little caffeine (or chocolate?) can make those knights jump higher and those bishops slice deeper.

Known for an unrelenting fighting spirit, chocolate1982 boasts a comeback rate of over 92% — a true Houdini of the 64 squares. Losing a piece? No problem; with a win rate after losing a piece of 45%, this player can snatch victory from the jaws of defeat like a grandmaster magician.

Their style is a marathon rather than a sprint — clocking an average of 70 moves per win and savoring the grind of the endgame with an 80% frequency in endgames. Early resignations? Barely 0.31%! Chocolate Dark fights until the very last pawn is promoted or the clock runs out (usually to the opponent’s horror).

When it’s time to pick openings, don't expect the usual suspects. Chocolate1982 keeps most lines top secret, but if curiosity strikes, there is evidence of occasional spiciness with the Englund Gambit boasting a sneaky win rate of nearly 54%, and solid dips into Caro-Kann and Ruy Lopez variations. A well-stocked chess kitchen, indeed.

Those who play against chocolate1982 might be their toughest adversaries. With over 17,000 wins in blitz and battles fought against a legion of opponents, some have survived, many have not—especially those unlucky enough to face them around 6 AM, their best time to play, when their win rate peaks and their tactical brilliance shines brightest.

Beware: with a longest winning streak of 15 games and a tilt factor of just 17 (yes, they get emotional too!), this player brings both grit and heart to every match. Whether crushing opponents on the clock or slowly squeezing them in complex endgames, chocolate1982 proves over and over that chess is both an art and a science, wrapped in a chocolate bar full of surprises.

You can witness this maestro in action on Chess.com, where games are fought with the elegance of a queen’s gambit and the bite of a rook’s attack. A champion in the making, conquering one position at a time, one delightful move at a time.
