PREDATOR

PREDATOR - The Chess Beast Behind the Board

Meet PREDATOR, also known by the stealthy username dedinok, a relentless chess warrior prowling the virtual battlefield. With a rapid rating that once roared to a fearsome 396 in April 2025, PREDATOR has demonstrated a fierce appetite for victory, balanced by a peculiar fondness for swings in performance that keep opponents on their toes.

Chess Profile & Playing Style

PREDATOR’s style? Think of a blend between a calculated hunter and a wild gamble taker. Known for an early resignation rate of just under 4%, and bringing the battle to the endgame over half the time, PREDATOR plays an average of 44 moves before tasting the sweet nectar of victory — but sometimes endures a grueling 65 moves before falling prey.

With a preference for attacks as White (54.1% win rate) and a slightly less dominant but respectable performance with Black (43.38% wins), PREDATOR is a versatile beast. The King’s Pawn Opening is the playground where PREDATOR shines brightest, boasting over 176 games and a 55% win rate—showing mastery in classic e4 territory. The Scandinavian defense and Nimzowitsch Defense are also recurrent weapons in the toolbox, with solid mid-40s to 50+% win ratios.

The Numbers Game

• Total Rapid Games: Over 560 battles fought, with a nearly balanced 295 wins versus 276 losses, proving this player never shies away from a fight.
• Blitz and Bullet: These formats tell a tale of cautious engagement—PREDATOR’s blitz and bullet performances are nascent but charged with potential.
• Notorious Winning and Losing Streaks: Glorious 8-game winning streaks put fear in rivals, but the 9-game losing streaks remind us even predators can get cornered.

Psychological Warfare & Timing

Not just brawn but brains, PREDATOR playfully struggles with a tilt factor of 9 (the struggle is real), but performs best in the eerie hours of 4:00 AM—when most pawns are asleep, the predator awakens.

Win rates peak on Mondays (53.75%) and at surprisingly high percentages during mid-afternoon to early evening hours, suggesting strong coffee and sharper instincts.

Recent Battles and Memorable Moments

In a recent clash showcasing tactical genius, PREDATOR executed a Nimzowitsch Defense masterpiece — a rapid-fire 29-move checkmate that left the opponent gasping ("Rh8#" anyone?). This game highlights PREDATOR’s willingness to launch early queen sorties, sharp bishop play, and lethal rook strikes.

But even the fiercest predators get caught: a tough loss by resignation in a King’s Pawn Opening encounter reminds us that humility is part of the game.

In Summary

PREDATOR is no ordinary chess player. With ups and downs resembling a rollercoaster ride, this player combines raw aggressive openings, a penchant for endgame skirmishes, and a dash of chaotic charm that makes every game a spectacle. A worthy opponent, a clever tactician, and maybe just a little bit of a wild card — just watch out when PREDATOR’s on the hunt!
