Chess Journey & Style

Starting at a modest rating below 600 in late 2022, CorGus22 embarked on a steady climb, conquering wins and learning from losses. This player balances aggressive tactics with patience, showing a strong endgame frequency of 65.53%, and an uncanny ability to claw back during tough spots, boasting a 74% comeback rate.

Opening Repertoire: Mysteries and Favorites

CorGus22's secret weapon is literally classified under "Top Secret" openings with almost 1,200 games played in that category, maintaining an almost even win-loss record (~49% win rate). But don't be fooled: when venturing into known territories, such as the Queens Pawn Opening Mikenas Lithuanian Variation, they're practically unstoppable with a 100% win rate.
