Meet Don_Levinia: The Persistent Chess Warrior
Don_Levinia is not your average chess player — more like the Ironman of the chessboard. Starting with a blitz rating north of 890 in 2020, Don has seen ups, downs, and a few rollercoaster dips in their blitz journey, currently sitting in the mid-300s. But don’t let the numbers fool you; Don_Levinia lights up the rapid format with a near-phenomenal peak rating of 980 and is even flirting with elite status in 2025 with a strong 972 rapid rating. Bullet chess? Let’s just say they’ve dipped their toes in that lightning-fast arena once — because who needs a heart attack on demand, right?
With over 3,000 blitz games under their belt, Don’s top secret opening surely keeps opponents guessing. Their affection for the King's Gambit and French Defense shows a romantic soul who likes to bring drama to the 64 squares. They average nearly 48 moves to claim victory, proving patience is a virtue (and maybe a survival tactic against their own blunders). Losses tend to drag longer — 62 moves on average — perhaps a sign of stubborn hope or refusing to surrender that queen without a fight.
Don_Levinia’s tactical prowess is inspiring: a comeback rate of 63.2% and a stunning 100% win rate after losing a piece suggest they’re the king or queen of turning tables. Don might grumble with a tilt factor of 12, but any frustration is quickly tempered by an uncanny ability to bounce back — impressive considering their modest 1.28% early resignation rate, meaning they rarely throw in the towel prematurely.
Psychologically resilient and surprisingly mixed in performance depending on the hour of day — 68% wins at 2 AM and a cozy 51% around 10 PM — Don_Levinia is clearly a creature of the night. Opponents beware: whether it’s Monday morning or Friday night, Don brings their A-game with an almost even 50% success on white pieces and a respectable 46% from the black side.
Off the board, Don_Levinia enjoys mingling with a diverse army of opponents — from longtime rivals like jako2022 to the recent challengers jaishreekrishna1 and gipolitano. Their record spans hundreds of players, boasting some perfect 100% win streaks (no pressure!) and a few tough nuts to crack.
Fun fact: Don once won 14 games in a row, a streak that would make even Magnus raise an eyebrow (or a rook!). Currently, they have a winning streak of 3 games going — looks like the comeback tour continues.
Whether you’re a grandmaster or a casual player, facing Don_Levinia is like challenging a whirlwind of strategic persistence and unexpected comebacks. Ready to test your mettle against a player who never truly gives up? Look no further. Just don’t be surprised if Don giggles after a brilliant sacrifice — this player clearly loves chess as much as they love to keep you guessing!
