Playing Style: A Rollercoaster Ride
Dave_07goat is no stranger to dramatic swings — from comeback king status, boasting a whopping 77.9% comeback rate, to managing an average of over 49 moves to win. To put that in perspective: some players checkmate quickly; Dave savors the suspense. An early resignation rate below 8% shows he's not a quitter, but that longest winning streak of 11 games proves he's got the staying power.

With a penchant for the King's Pawn openings — especially the Leonardis Variation — Dave tends to mix classical flair with surprising tactical shots. Notable favorites include Majestic Philidor Defense and sneaky Scandinavian Defense Closed, where he enjoys win rates often over 60%, making opponents think twice before launching attacks.

Fun fact: He has a roughly equal winning touch as White (52.4%) and Black (52.0%), showcasing balanced versatility. Although he occasionally loses against higher-rated foes more often than he’d like, his grit against lower-rated players is unmatched, winning nearly 86% of those battles.
Opponent Tales
Dave_07goat has a knack for demolishing some challengers with a perfect 100% win record against a motley crew of players like ungabungadadd, deptmenager, arrytv, and brainrotgamebit. But woe to the few who’ve cracked his defense – sometimes losing streaks do hit (longest at 7).
