DolSC

Player Profile: DolSC

Rating Snapshot: DolSC’s chess journey in rapid play has been nothing short of a rollercoaster. Peaking at a humble 383 in May 2025 before a sharp dip down to around 112, their rating reflects the classic ups and downs of a fearless battlefield commander who isn't afraid to experiment — and sometimes crash spectacularly.

Playing Style & Strengths

DolSC prefers to keep their opponents on their toes, favoring dynamic openings like the Scandinavian Defense Mieses Kotrc Variation with a respectable 50% win rate, and the ever-unpredictable Undefined opening, which somehow boasts a flawless 100% win rate. Clearly, mystery suits them well!

However, not every gambit is a winner; the Caro Kann Defense and Birds Opening have been less kind, each ending in full losses despite the passion shown.

Battle Record

With 21 wins to 41 losses and a single draw in rapid games, DolSC shows admirable perseverance. Their longest winning streak of 3 games offers a glimmer of hope among a challenging longest losing streak of 10 games—a true embodiment of the phrase, “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger... or at least wiser with openings.”

One particularly tough rival has been jasonconnolly1, against whom DolSC has yet to taste victory in seven encounters—a classic nemesis scenario. Yet, others like carolb24 and andysaram have found DolSC’s tactics too tricky and have been defeated.

Notable Moments

DolSC’s recent victories often come with a flair for psychological warfare, winning by resignation or game abandonment, demonstrating that sometimes just making the opponent throw in the towel early is the best move. Their best time to strike? 1:00 PM sharp – apparently when their coffee kicks in.

Chess Personality

With a 10% tilt factor, some unlucky breaks can lead DolSC towards a quick meltdown, but with a 61.9% comeback rate after setbacks, this player refuses to back down without a fight. The average game lasts around 22 moves for a win, but significantly longer for losses—perhaps a sign that DolSC enjoys the struggle just a bit too much.

In summary, DolSC is the kind of player who reminds us that chess isn’t only about ratings and wins, but also about the thrilling dance of strategy, surprises, and sometimes, spectacular blunders. Keep an eye on this unpredictable tactician — next time, that losing streak might just turn into a legendary winning spree!
