Meet Cloudshark123: The Chessboard's Apex Predator

Hailing from the stormy seas of online chess arenas, Cloudshark123 is a true specimen of strategic evolution. Since making their debut in 2020 with a modest rapid rating of 627, this player has mutated into a fearsome opponent, reaching a remarkable rapid peak of 1907 by 2025. From the murky depths of the middlegame trenches to the sharp edges of endgames, Cloudshark123 navigates the chess ecosystem with patented fin-tuned precision.

Growth & Strength

Much like a shark evolving sharper teeth, Cloudshark123's rating trajectory across time controls tells the tale of relentless progress and adaptation. Their rapid play rating has surged from beginner 600s in 2020 to nearly 1900 by 2025, showcasing a jaw-dropping improvement reminiscent of nature’s finest apex predators. Bullet and blitz realms are equally conquered, with bullet ratings soaring from humble 600s to a swift 1700s, and blitz climbs stabilizing in the 1600s – making their speed of play as swift and ruthless as a feeding frenzy.

Style of Play

Cloudshark123 exhibits a balanced blend of patience and aggression. With an early resignation rate just under 2.5%, they are not one to give up prey easily. Instead, their average moves per win (~59) and loss (~62) indicate a persevering, calculated approach, letting their strategies simmer before striking. White pieces yield a slightly better success rate (~53%) than black (~50%), revealing a slight edge when on the offensive. The endgame frequency of nearly 65% suggests this player enjoys the biological battlefield's final stages, navigating intricate survival scenarios with aplomb.

Tactical Savvy & Psychology

When a piece is lost, most fish would scatter, but not Cloudshark123 – their win rate after losing a piece is a stunning100%, a testament to their tenacity in the face of adversity. Their comeback rate is a fierce 75.86%, revealing an uncanny ability to turn the tide and swim back stronger. The mild tilt factor of 15% shows some occasional emotional ripples but nothing that drowns their performance.

Opening Arsenal

Cloudshark123 prefers classic sea routes through the chess ocean: the Sicilian Defense and the Caro-Kann Defense are their tried-and-true hunting grounds, boasting win rates up to 71% and 61% respectively in rapid games. Their skill with the Philidor Defense Exchange Variation and Scandinavian Defense Mieses Kotrc Variation adds variety to their tactical feeding patterns.

Community & Opponents

With over 7,000 games logged across bullet, blitz, rapid, and daily formats, Cloudshark123 is an old predator in these waters. They have had prolonged bouts with contenders like shiny_rock777 (winning over 92% of encounters), establishing a reputation among fellow chess fish as both a respected and feared adversary.

When not hunting down opponents, Cloudshark123 enjoys analyzing games around peak hours between 13:00 and 22:00, when their win rate surges near 57%, showing that timing is as crucial as strategy in this underwater domain.

Final Bite
