Profile: cr7andlm10goats
Meet cr7andlm10goats, a chess warrior battling the 64 squares with a passion rivaling their username's hint at greatness. Although their name suggests legendary status on the soccer fields, on the chessboard they are forging their own story—one fragmented tactic and daring gambit at a time.
Rating & Style
With a peak rapid rating soaring above 1000 (1033 on March 13, 2025), and blitz and bullet ratings touching respectable highs of 653 and 376 respectively, cr7andlm10goats proves proficient in faster time controls, where nerves and speed often reign supreme.
A strong penchant for the Petrov’s Defense Classical Variation in rapid games (100% win rate on 2 games) and the Pirc Defense Maroczy Defense in bullet (winning over 66% of the time) show they enjoy stirring the pot with less orthodox openings. However, the Kings Pawn Opening (Kings Knight Variation) seems to occasionally get their goat—tough opponents have led to a 26.67% win rate there in bullet!
Playing quirks
They are not one to drag out losses unnecessarily — the early resignation rate sits low at just 1.09%, but their games tend to have a marathon flavor with an average of 54 moves per win. Yet, despite the length, their endgame frequency is a lofty 62.8%, meaning they’re comfortable grinding out those late battles.
Tactical surprises? Count on it. Their comeback rate is an impressive 82.54%, meaning when the tide turns against them, they’ve got tricks up their sleeve. Even after losing a piece, they still win over 35% of those fights. We suspect they bleed a little sweat in time pressure since many victories come from opponents timing out (45 wins on timeout), but hey, that’s a legit way to win!
Notable Stats
- Longest winning streak: 6 games
- Current winning streak: 2 games
- Longest losing streak: 6 games
- Overall bullet record: 42 wins, 43 losses, 2 draws
- Best time to play: 2 AM sharp — maybe late night coffee fuels the brain!
- Favorite days with highest win rates: Monday & Saturday
Recent Battles
Recently, cr7andlm10goats conquered aimanelwakil with a precise victory in a nail-biting Pirc Defense game, winning on time after 34 intense moves. They also showed dominance over sidd2506, continuing their universal streak against this opponent.
However, not every match ends in glory. A tough loss came at the hands of hugzsan, who broke through a Kings Pawn Opening Kings Knight Variation attack. Nevertheless, the resilience remains—it’s all in the game!
Final Thoughts
While their ratings hint at a player aspiring for more than casual glory, cr7andlm10goats navigates their games with tactical boldness and resilient spirit. Whether it’s outmaneuvering opponents or capitalizing on time pressure, this player’s chess journey is one full of heart, hustle, and hopefully, many more goats ascended to legendary status.

Hi cr7andlm10goats! 👋
Quick snapshot
• Current Bullet strength: about 300-380 Elo
• Personal best so far: 376 (2025-05-27)
• Activity patterns:
What’s already working
- Fast hands. Most of your wins come from opponents running out of time. Your instinct to keep the clock pressure high is an asset in 1-minute games.
- Early central occupation. Moves such as 1.e4 2.d4 and quick
dxe5grab space and open lines for your pieces. - Open-file awareness. In several wins you doubled rooks on open files or invaded with
Rxe5/Rxd7to collect material.
Main improvement themes
-
Speed is good, but accuracy first. Roughly half of the recent losses were also on time—but only after positions had become tricky or lost.
🪄 Bullet tip: Decide on a candidate move quickly, but spend a half-second checking “What can my opponent do on the next move?” before you release the piece. -
Avoid premature queen adventures. Games against henry-florez and hugzsan show your queen hopping (e.g.
Qd1-h5-g5-…) while other pieces slept. Each queen tempo you give away becomes a free developing move for the opponent.
📌 Challenge: For the next 20 games keep your queen on her starting rank until at least move 6, unless you have a forced win of material. -
King safety first. You often trade queens on d8/d1 early, leaving the king stuck in the centre (see 4…
Qxd1+Kxd1). Castle whenever possible; an uncastled king costs precious bullet seconds because you must constantly parry checks. -
Tactical vision. Missed forks and back-rank mates decided several games. Daily puzzle practice (5-10 minutes) will raise your pattern recognition and actually save time during games.
Key patterns to drill: knight forks, back-rank motifs, discovered checks.
Opening focus (next two weeks)
| As White | As Black |
|---|---|
Play the simple Scotch Game: 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 exd4 4.Nxd4. It follows classical principles and avoids early queen moves. |
Against 1.e4, answer with ...e5 and stick to the solid Philidor setup: …d6 …Nf6 …Be7 …O-O. Fewer tricky lines = faster decisions. |
Model end-game to review
From your win vs aimanelwakil. Notice how activity of rooks decides the game:
Training plan
- 10 puzzles/day focused on forks & mates in 2.
- Play 5 slow games/week (10|0 or longer). Review each game to spot blunders you missed in bullet.
- Keep a one-page opening notebook with your first 8 moves as White and Black. Re-read it before a playing session; this saves clock time.
Mind-set reminder
Fast is fine, but fast and accurate wins trophies.
Good luck, have fun, and see you over the board!
