Profile: daniel01664
Meet daniel01664, a relentless chess enthusiast with more ups and downs than a rollercoaster in a theme park — but with slightly fewer screams (mostly). Starting with a promising peak rapid rating of 597 in mid-2023, daniel01664’s journey through chess lands somewhere between “brilliant tactical fighter” and “resigned-before-lunch.”
Despite a win rate of about one-third in rapid games, daniel01664 is not one to back down. This player has a somewhat humorous reputation for early resignations, clocking in around 20% of losses by bowing out gracefully, as if to say, “I knew this was doomed before we started.” On the bright side, the comeback rate is a respectable 60%, showcasing an ability to rise from the ashes — kind of like a chess phoenix... that occasionally forgets where it left its pieces.
Style & Play
- Preferred Openings: A mixed bag featuring some classic Kings Pawn sometimes paired with the nimble Alapin Sicilian Defense — which demoed a perfect 100% win rate in their hands. Also known to dabble in the Reti Opening and the less popular, albeit fearless, Nimzowitsch Defense (though that one has been a tougher ride, with a 0% win rate).
- Playing Time Mojo: Peak performance comes around 17:00 hours, where daniel01664 achieves a stellar 100% win rate. Apparently, this is when the tactical gears really start clicking.
- Mood: With a tilt factor of 6, this player knows frustration but keeps a fighting spirit. They tend to do better against lower-rated opponents, boasting a 71% win rate there — an optimistic sign that with more practice, the star could shine brighter.
Notable Battles
