DarthVaderFTW: International Master of the Chess Galaxy

Emerging from the shadowy depths of the chess universe, DarthVaderFTW wields the power of strategy and cunning with the precision of a Sith Lord. Known officially as an International Master under FIDE's banner, DarthVaderFTW has carved a reputation as a formidable competitor on the rapid chess battlefield, achieving a peak rating of 2413 in 2024.

This chess warrior's style combines patient endgames—occurring in nearly 77% of matches—with tactical brilliance, boasting an impeccable 100% win rate after losing a piece and a staggering 87% comeback rate. DarthVaderFTW’s games often involve long, thoughtful struggles, averaging over 79 moves to victory. Opponents beware: their resilience is deadly, and early resignation is almost never a path taken (a mere 5.7% rate).

Though the dark side of the force may tempt them with occasional tilt (rated moderately at 6), DarthVaderFTW keeps their cool well enough to crush casual and rated opponents alike, boasting a massive 52.86% higher win rate in rated battles. Their winning streak record once hit 11 games—a streak worthy of Imperial respect—but the current force level rests at a calm zero to regroup for the next assault.

On the opening front, DarthVaderFTW remains secretive—having played over 1,065 games in the mysterious "Top Secret" opening with a solid 53% win rate. This unpredictability leaves opponents guessing whether to prepare defenses or resign in fear.

The hours between midnight and early morning fuel this player's strongest performances, with win rates soaring past 60% after midnight, and a noticeably high 83% success at 2pm. Wednesday may not be their best day, but Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays see DarthVaderFTW’s star shine bright.

No opponent is safe, from frequent rivals to last game adversaries—though some foes seem to have found the Dark Side too strong, with win rates ranging from zero to perfect victories depending on the foe's luck. It’s rumored that even the likes of "marioibabao06" or "jess0921431" have fallen 100% in their encounters.

In summary, DarthVaderFTW commands their chess universe with relentless endgame domination, psychological resilience, and a sprinkle of mystery. Truly, the Force is strong with this International Master.
