CONTHEGOAT: The Relentless Strategist of the 64 Squares
Known in the online chess world as CONTHEGOAT, this player is a unique blend of persistence, tactical brilliance, and occasional comedic timing—mostly at their own expense. With a bullet rating that’s taken a rollercoaster ride (peaking near 984 in 2021 before settling comfortably in the 600s by 2025), CONTHEGOAT clearly prefers quality over sheer speed—unless it's a bullet game where nerves and reflexes clash at lightning speed.
Jumping into rapid and blitz, CONTHEGOAT shines brightest. In blitz, the rating soared from a humble 655 in 2021 to over 1100 by 2024–2025, proving that lightning-fast tactics and quick thinking are their forte. Rapid games tell a similar story, with a max rating near 1340 back in 2021, maintaining steady performance and showcasing a knack for mid-paced strategic skirmishes.
Daily chess? Well, let's just say CONTHEGOAT takes the long game seriously—with steady ratings around 1160 to 1200 over the years and a win rate over 58% with the favorite opening "Top Secret" (because sometimes mystery is the best strategy).
