Dylan Doucy

The Style and Strategy

Dylan plays a curious mix of openings, favoring the dynamic and classical:

• King's Pawn Opening (42.5% win rate)
• Queen's Pawn Opening variants including the Chigorin (around 45%) and a respectable 57% in other Queen's Pawn setups
• Notably, he's got a 100% success rate in the Pirc Defense —strictly business.
• Some openings, like the Italian Game, have not been so kind — a humbling 0% win rate there (hey, even the best have “off” days).

Victories, Defeats, and the Fine Art of Resignation

With a career rapid record of 92 wins, 98 losses, and 15 draws, Dylan epitomizes commitment — playing nearly 205 games at a level where patience and persistence win the day. His endgame frequency is almost 59%, showing he enjoys the grueling long haul rather than random quick skirmishes. Having an “early resignation rate” of just 7% suggests he fights valiantly, rarely giving up before the battle is truly done.
