Confineboy: The Underdog Chess Warrior

Once upon a chessboard, in the realm of pawns and knights, emerged Confineboy, a player whose rating tells a tale of fierce battles and consistent grit. Peaking modestly at a Rapid rating of 1208 in early 2021, Confineboy has danced on the edge of victorious triumphs and close defeats, embodying the classic spirit of the resilient contender.

Rating Rollercoaster & Game Style

From 978 to 1208 and then sliding gracefully back down into the 890s by 2025, Confineboy’s rapid rating trajectory is like a knight zigzagging through a battlefield — unpredictable, full of strategic maneuvers, some daring sacrifices, and occasional blunders. With a Rapid record of 180 wins, 191 losses, and 10 draws, this player clearly prefers action-packed games over dull stalemates.

Blitz? Well, Confineboy has only dipped toes there with a tough 0-2 record, proving maybe the rapid pace is the true comfort zone.

Opening Repertoire: A Mixed Bag of Surprises

Confineboy loves mixing it up — favorites include the King’s Pawn Opening with a solid 66.67% win rate and the Queen’s Pawn Chigorin Variation, which hasn’t been so forgiving at 38.89%. The Philidor Defense seems to be a personal nemesis, with a meager 25% success rate. But hey, every chess hero needs a challenge!

Comebacks and Psychological Fortitude

With a commendable 76.67% comeback rate after falling behind, Confineboy has the stubborn tenacity of a pitbull — losing a piece? No problem, the win rate after that is still a respectable 42.33%. Average games last upwards of 60 moves when winning, indicating thoughtful perseverance rather than quick-fire tactics.

Beware the tilt factor of 9, though — even legends need their coffee breaks.

Peak Moments & Recent Battles

Confineboy’s peak rapid rating was logged in January 2021 at 1208. The most recent victories (in 2025) showcase a knack for winning by resignation, often outplaying opponents in strategic endgames, as confirmed by recent game records versus samkeys44, nurish21, and subra82 with flawless 100% win rates.

Losses against tough adversaries like Aleph00015 and chochocha remind us that no journey is without obstacles. And Confineboy faces these with the calm of a true chessfighter.

Best Time to Catch Confineboy in Action

Interestingly, 4 AM is the “best time of day” to challenge Confineboy — when everyone else is snoozing, this player is wide awake, ready to strategize, and rack up those wins. Weekends and evenings also bring a spike in success, with Saturday boasting a near 58% win rate.

In Conclusion

Confineboy may not be the grandmaster stealing headlines, but a determined competitor with a knack for resilience, experimentation, and, above all, the love of the game. A player who knows the value of every pawn, the subtlety of each bishop’s angle, and the thrill of a last-minute checkmate.

So if you find yourself facing Confineboy, beware: though the rating might be humble, the fighting spirit and tactical twists are anything but.

“Chess is 99% tactics,” say the wise. Confineboy is busy proving it every day.
