Profile: crongim

Once a humble contender in the vast chess universe, crongim has been leveling up their rapid chess game with a fiery passion (and occasional moments of despair) from a modest 188 rating in September 2023 to a respectable peak of 380 by April 2025. Their rapid play portfolio is a rollercoaster of 48 wins, 41 losses, and a clutch 14 draws, reflecting a player who’s not afraid to mix it up and learn from both kingside attacks and sacrificial blunders.

Playing Style & Highlights

With an average of about 53 moves per win and a slightly longer 60 moves average per loss, crongim is clearly not one to give up easily. Their dedication to the endgame shines through with a notable 52% endgame frequency. However, early resignation is a rare sight here, clocking in just under 2.5% — because, hey, every chess battle deserves a proper (if not always victorious) finish.

Opening Repertoire

Opening choices reveal crongim’s experimental tastes:

• Philidor Defense and Nimzowitsch Defense: A strong suit with 75% win rates, proving that sometimes the old-school strategies still pack a punch.
• Scandinavian Defense: Evenly split thrillers, learning to tango with equal parts success and setbacks.
• Queen’s Pawn and King’s Pawn Openings: Adventures with moderate results — a true chess explorer!

Tactical Tenacity

Crongim is a comeback master with an impressive 70.8% comeback rate — when the chips are down, this player never truly backs down. Even after losing a piece, they manage to snatch victories in about 40% of those challenging moments. And although the tilt factor is a modest 5%, crongim still knows the value of shaking off a bad move and refocusing.

Favorite Time to Play

Peak performance slices through the afternoon, especially around 16:00 hours — at this time, crongim boasts a perfect win rate. Morning games aren’t too shabby either, with strong performances between 10:00 and 13:00. However, the early morning and late afternoons could still use some caffeine and maybe a lucky charm or two.

Recent Battles

Recent matches paint a thrilling picture. A memorable win came on May 30, 2025, against challenger iamnewbutiwanttoplaychess with a strategic resignation victory (because sometimes forcing your opponent to resign early is just plain satisfying). In contrast, losses like the one against Basselord remind us that even knights and bishops have off days.

Legendary Streaks

The longest winning streak of 5 games shows crongim’s potential to go beast mode, while an equally long losing streak reminds everyone that the struggle is real. But currently, the momentum is forward: a fresh 2-game winning streak is ensuring the fans stay hopeful.

Opponent Insights

Among the most conquered foes are iwanttoplaychess, ziadbenzeka, fores1234, and king_ab_67, all victims to a perfect win record against crongim. Some opponents, like basselord, however, serve as tough puzzles yet to be fully solved.

In Summary

Crongim is a rapidly improving, tactically aware player juggling ups and downs with a sense of humor as sharp as their opening moves. They might not always be the queen of the board, but with resilience, unpredictable openings, and a comeback spirit built to last, crongim is a force chess enthusiasts should keep their eyes (and rooks) on.
