Damian Dejlu Alencewicz - Chess Adventurer Extraordinaire

Meet Damian Dejlu Alencewicz, a chess player whose journey through the 64 squares is as colorful as a kaleidoscope—sometimes dazzling, sometimes a blur. If chess were a rollercoaster, Dejlu’s rating history shows highs like a climb to 660 in rapid (2023) and thrilling dips, reminding everyone that every king falls but rises again.

Rating Rollercoaster

  • Rapid: Peaked at a proud 660 in 2023, proving rapid-fire thinking is his forte, though his last recorded rating in 2025 settled around 377.
  • Blitz: With a roller coaster max of 595 in 2023 and some fierce battles under 200, he's no stranger to fast and furious games.
  • Bullet: His bullet rating raced up to 414 in 2023, showing lightning reflexes and an ability to survive with his wits (and perhaps a bit of luck).
  • Daily: Slow and steady? Not exactly his style — with fewer games and a modest record, but still a player who sometimes likes to take his time right before the checkmate.

Playing Style & Personality

Damian tends to keep his games brisk, rarely hanging around for a long endgame—the endgame frequency is under 30%, probably because “Why wait for the inevitable when you can shake things up early?” Early resignation rate clocks around 42%, so when a line looks stale, Dejlu knows when to wave the white flag and prep for the next battle.

The average moves per game hover around 31–32, suggesting Damian is a “let’s get to the point” kinda strategist. Win rates show he favors White slightly (48%) but is also dangerous when Black pieces are in his hands (44.7%).

Tactical Wit & Tenacity

Dejlu is no quitter: even after losing a piece his win rate bounces back nobly at 65%. His comeback rate of 38% tells the tale of a player who’s savvy enough to turn the tides and keep opponents on their toes.

Beware though — one-sided losses happen about 46% of the time, perhaps a reminder that when he loses, he does so with flair. Plus, his tilt factor is a reasonable 12%, so a rough streak might cause eye-rolls but no dramatic crashes.

Record vs. Opponents & Opening Secrets

With over 700 rapid games and more than 390 blitz games using a top secret opening repertoire, Damian keeps his opponents guessing. His win rate in Bullet mode tops 52% when deploying these secret weapons.

He’s battled the likes of majk3logic 50 times (with a respectable 22% win rate) and merkayo 15 times (scoring 40%). Against opponents like husamro, yassinehemdi, and adam655705, Dejlu boasts a perfect 100% win rate. Clearly, some players just can't crack his code.

Chess Clock Hours & Mood

Notably, Damian’s win rates peak in the wee hours (2 AM with 62.5%, 23 PM with 57.58%, and 22 PM with 53.41%), proving he’s either a night owl or the chess board calls to him when the rest of the world sleeps.

He wins most on Mondays (50%) and keeps a solid 47.5% on Sundays, perfect for weekend warriors looking for inspiration.

Fun Fact

Damian’s longest winning streak is a neat 10 games — so while early resignations happen, when he’s on fire, he’s unstoppable. The current streak may be zero, but chess, like life, is a series of battles won one game at a time.

In short, Damian Dejlu Alencewicz is a dynamic, fast-paced player with moments of brilliance, secret opening spells, and enough tactical grit to make chess a thrilling adventure every time he sits at the board.

Hi Damian – personalised feedback on your recent play

1. What you already do well

  • Tactical alertness: Your most recent win against donmacchiato29 (see miniature below) shows that you quickly recognise loose pieces and mating nets.
  • Practical aggression: Moving the h-pawn in several games (e.g. vs jacobagulu) indicates you are not afraid to seize space or open lines against the enemy king.
  • Fighting spirit in low-rated pools: When the position turns wild you usually keep looking for checks, captures and threats until your opponent cracks.

2. Priority improvements

  1. Follow basic opening principles more faithfully.
    • In your losses you often bring the same piece out twice (e.g. Ne5–c4–e5 in the Modern Defence game) or launch the queen before finishing development.
    • Remedy: Aim for three pieces plus castling before any queen adventure. A quick mental checklist after move 6 keeps you on track.
  2. King safety first, even when you are the attacker.
    • Against jacobagulu you played 9.h4 without completing development; when the counter-blow came you had no pieces left near your king.
    • Drill: Set up training positions where you must repel attacks with an under-defended king. Use the “King & pawn shield” theme on tactics servers.
  3. Time-management. Several defeats (e.g. vs youthhunter63) were due to running out of time despite a playable position.
    • Practical tip: Allocate your 3-minute game roughly as follows – Opening 45 s, Middlegame 1 m 45 s, Ending 30 s. Glance at the clock every two moves, not just in crisis moments.

3. Opening repertoire suggestions

With WhiteWith Black
You already steer into a London-style setup (1.d4 Bf4 e3 c3). Study 5 classic model games and memorise the tabiya up to move 8. This will give you solid structures and free more time on the clock. After 1.e4 you like 1…e5 and even 2…Nc6 3.d5 Nd4. Keep that as a surprise weapon, but add a main-line defence (e.g. the Scotch Four Knights or the Italian Two Knights with the safer 4…Bc5) so you don’t rely on opponent mistakes.

4. Sneak-peek at your quick tactical win

5. Training menu for the next two weeks

  • 30 tactical puzzles/day focusing on forks & double-attacks.
  • Play five 10|0 games and annotate them manually; highlight moments where you moved the same piece twice in the opening.
  • Watch one short video on the importance of tempo in the opening (search “tempo in chess” in your favourite platform).
