Meet cwetzel11: The Relentless Rapid Warrior
If chess ratings were rollercoasters, cwetzel11’s journey would be a thrilling ride full of dramatic climbs and daring dips! Starting in 2022 with a modest rapid rating of around 600, this player has rocketed up to a peak rapid rating of 1458 in March 2023 — a milestone reached after 5346 intense battles in the “Top Secret” opening arena. Clearly, cwetzel11 prefers to keep their strategies under wraps, but their win rate of almost 48% shows there’s plenty of magic behind the curtain.
In blitz games, the story is equally captivating but a bit more mercurial. From a humble high of 763 in 2022, cwetzel11 exploded onto the scene with a blitz peak of 1332 in early 2025. The blitz win rate hovers around 46%, featuring a mix of Scandinavian Defense variations — including the legendary “Mieses Kotrc Variation” (a true test of nerves) where our player has faced some tough battles.
Playing Style & Quirks
- Early resignation rate: A modest 3.5%, showing cwetzel11 plays to the end — or at least tries to avoid the meek surrender.
- Endgame savvy: Nearly 68% of games go down to the wire, with an average winning game length of about 62 moves. Patience is a virtue, and this player has it in spades.
- Combacks aplenty: A stunning 75% win rate on comebacks when down in material — talk about fighting spirit!
- Tilt factor of 11: So, not the most stoic of players, but who doesn’t get a little flustered when the queen betrays them?
Peak Moments & Recent Battles
The highlight reel includes a recent spectacular checkmate over royobattyo, delivered with impeccable precision in a Scandinavian Defense opening. This game culminated in a brilliant queen sacrifice leading to a final blow at move 33 — a masterclass in tactical awareness and perseverance.
Yet, not every day has been a win for cwetzel11. Losses, such as the one against abray7 on time, remind us that even the best have those “did-I-just-blunder-my-queen?” moments. Nevertheless, with a nearly even rapid record of 2557 wins to 2549 losses, and a blitz tally of 444 wins versus 486 losses, this player embodies the true spirit of tenacity in chess.
Favorite Openings
Beware opponents who love the Scandinavian Defense, because cwetzel11 knows its ins and outs, especially in rapid games. Other favorites include the King's Pawn Opening with cheeky variations and a sprinkle of Queen's Pawn strategies — a delightful mix that keeps challengers on their toes.
