Michael W
Michael W, known online as ComeHugMyKing, is a chess player with a romantic bark and a blitz appetite. If his username is an invitation, his game history is a polite, slightly dangerous crowd: more than 32,000 rated games, a short list of favorite gambits, and a stubborn refusal to log off ever. The preferred format? Blitz, by a massive margin.
The Blitz Marathon
Michael appears to be allergic to quiet evenings. From 2019 through 2026, his [[Chart|Rout of his run|Blitz|2019-2026]] looks less like a ladder and more like a Fibonacci pile, with swings of over one hundred points inside a single month. That is the profile of a player who returns after every sting.
He has reached a 1531 (2023-05-24) of 1531 in Blitz, 1615 (2024-05-04) of 1615 in Rapid, and 1658 (2023-04-29) of 1658 in Bullet. The fascist mix: he can be brutal in any time control, but the reliable, daily heartbeat is Blitz.
adds one more twist, his opening choices are as stubborn as a sticker: when he finds something he loves, he plays it a thousand more times.Openings and High Enthusiasm
The loving player is also a collector of famous, and occasionally absurd, openings. As White he has deployed the Blackburne Shilling Gambit to about 1500 primary victims, which says a lot about. On the roads where he has Black, the Sicilian Defense is the main relationship, appearing in over 3000 games around his match list. He also favours the Amar Gambit, the barnes Defense and the Bird Opening, often kicking the pirate.
- As White he trusts the Blackburne Shilling Gambit more than other people trust their own bank password.
- As other Blackness he asks Sicilian opponents whether they want the calm Anti, the Closed, or "it might be a Dragon".
- Whatever he plays, the player is genuinely found after move one.
Chaos Control
The scariest number from Michael's record may be the 68-game losing streak. That is a geological era in online chess. Yet he also has a winning streak of 19, with an 83.62% rates of coming back into the match, and only 3.64% of his losses are one-sided. Translation: he fights, he hugs, he forgets.
His most memorable opponent list is an entire fandom. Laurarrgh appears in 89 of his games, as an old foil. Other favourites are journeychosen, who is a friendly 33 to 3 trophy, and xxcandykush, who collects almost every win against Michael like a patient older sibling.
The Verdict
Michael W is the proof that nearly every average chess rating can still generate spectacular pain and delight. His board is a warm hug, his gambits are below 50 percent, and his career is one large crowd: "come hug my King, it will not end well."
