Profile Summary: cormocan (P C)

Meet cormocan, a resilient chess enthusiast whose journey on the 64 squares has been nothing short of a rollercoaster ride — and who doesn’t love a good ride? Hailing from the world of rapid, blitz, and bullet games, cormocan has shown exceptional tenacity, battling opponents with an unwavering spirit. Their peak rapid rating soared to 750 back in September 2021, proving they’ve got skill — even if the journey since then has been an adventurous zigzag rather than a straight climb!

Over the years, cormocan has amassed over 430 wins in rapid chess with a balanced mix of draws and losses, and a tactical approach that is as bold as it is amusing. Known for an impressive comeback rate of nearly 80%, this player is not one to throw in the towel easily — getting knocked down is just an opportunity to rise with a fierce counterattack.

As a connoisseur of openings, cormocan’s favorite playground lies in the Pirc Defense and Queens Pawn Opening Zukertort Chigorin Variation. Their Pirc Defense games boast a respectable win rate of over 60%, demonstrating that while the board may be chaotic, they are calmly plotting a strategic masterpiece. The nickname “master of the Pirc” might be an upcoming reality.

In rapid battles, cormocan prefers the afternoon hours, specifically around 3 PM, when the brain is freshest and blunders are at bay — a time when their win rate hits a gleaming 100%. Early mornings and late nights? Less so (22:00 has been more of a "please be gentle" moment), but hey, nobody’s perfect!

Their style is a whimsical blend of patience and persistence, often dragging the game into the endgame with an average of nearly 59 moves per game, showcasing a love for long, suspenseful duels. Beware if you think you can rattle cormocan — with a tilt factor of just 10, they keep calm and carry on, making you wonder if they’ve unlocked the secret chess Zen.

Despite fierce competition and not always having the upper hand in blitz or bullet, cormocan shines in rapid chess matches and keeps improving. Whether it’s delivering checkmates with a flourish or gracefully accepting a loss, cormocan reminds us all: chess is a marathon, not a sprint — but with a whole lot of colorful detours!
