Idris Osinowo (Dhriseskid) - The Rapid Riddler

Known online as Dhriseskid, Idris Osinowo is a rapid chess enthusiast who dances on the 64 squares with a playful yet strategic flair. With a peak rapid rating of 259 in 2025 and a respectable 237 rating at year-end, Idris has experienced both thrilling victories and humbling defeats in his 243 rapid games.

Idris's style is a curious blend: rarely does he throw in the towel early, resigning only about 7% of the time, but when it comes to endgames, he shows remarkable endurance, engaging in over half of his games into the twilight phase. His average winning game lasts about 53 moves—long enough to develop a snack craving but not so long as to require a nap.

Opening Gambits & Strategic Quirks

Dhriseskid's opening repertoire is as eclectic as his online opponents. He feels right at home diving into the King's Pawn Opening, holding a steady 50% win rate across 30 encounters. Yet, it’s the King's Pawn Opening Leonardis Variation where Idris truly shines, boasting an impressive 83% win rate in 6 games—clearly, a secret weapon hidden in his opening arsenal.

He’s also charmed by Alekhine’s Defense, winning two-thirds of those duels, and frequently unleashes the tricky Van't Kruijs Opening, proving he’s not afraid to venture off the beaten path.

Opponent Chronicles & Psychological Playground

Facing opponents from reez_rz to kingirfan17, Idris’s record reads like a seesaw: close to an even split of 114 wins and 112 losses, with a handful of draws. His longest winning streak capped at 7 games, but currently he’s cooling his engines without a win streak underway.

Psychologically, Idris keeps a low tilt factor of 5—meaning he’s a calm gladiator who doesn’t throw fits easily. His tactical awareness is formidable; after losing a piece, his comeback rate soars to a perfect 100% victory in those fights. If you capture his pawn, beware—he’s plotting a sneaky checkmate comeback!

Hourly Hustle & Weekly Wins

Oddly enough, his best results come in the early morning—like a grandmaster with a cup of coffee. His win rate hits a perfect 100% at 4 AM (are others even awake?), while evenings at 6 PM show a win rate soaring as high as 80%. Sadly, Saturdays and Tuesdays seem to be his kryptonite, with win rates well below 20%.

In short, Idris Osinowo is a rapid chess adventurer with a knack for comebacks, an appetite for less common openings, and an uncanny ability to defy the odds when the odds are stacked against him. Watch out for Dhriseskid—he might just resign your hopes before your queen even leaves the board!
