Profile Summary: dontchess223

Meet dontchess223, the Rapid chess enthusiast who's been quietly climbing the ranks like a stealthy rook on an open file. Despite a humble beginning at a Rapid rating of 235 in early 2025, this player quickly embraced the battlefield—often armed with a daring mix of classic openings and gambits that keep opponents guessing and sometimes gasping.

Not one for bullet battles, dontchess223 drowned in a single Bullet game loss, practically waving the white flag. However, their true domain is Rapid, where they've racked up an impressive 171 wins against 146 losses and 15 draws—a commendable record that shows grit with a slight hint of “expect the unexpected.” Their peak Rapid rating soared to an eye-popping 461 in June 2025, proving that persistence pays off—even if some opening choices would make grandmasters clutch their pearls.

Playing Style & Signature Moves

dontchess223 loves the thrill of the game with an average decisive game length around 54 moves, which hints at a patient strategist comfortable navigating the chessboard's complexities. They favor the Kings Pawn Opening but don’t shy from a cheeky Englund Gambit or the less-traveled paths like the Van t Kruijs Opening, boasting impressive win rates up to 72.7% in the Petrovs Defense. Opponents beware: this player isn't afraid to mix it up and tends to dismiss the usual playbook, proving there's more than one way to checkmate.

Streaks, Tilts & Tactical Quirks

With a longest winning streak of 12 and a not-so-glorious longest losing streak of 7, dontchess223 plays the emotional rollercoaster of chess with an average tilt factor of 7—meaning a bad position might just prompt a theatrical resignation or two. Tactical comebacks are their specialty, bouncing back from tough spots 69% of the time. However, beware the occasional one-sided loss lurking at just under 11% of their games.

Favorite Time and Day to Outsmart You

According to statistics carved in the digital stone, the best time to play against dontchess223 might be around 1 AM, when their win rate peaks at a dazzling 100% (or maybe that's when opponents are half asleep). Sundays are generally lucky days with a 64% win rate, but Wednesdays might surprise you with a mere 36% success. So plan your match accordingly!

Battle-Tested Rivalries

Having faced over 35 games against anupbhandari9 with a tough 37% win rate, dontchess223 seems to have found friendly nemeses. But against many others like ja32_32, tomyoyo974, and antonio12gamez, the record boasts a perfect 100% win ratio—because sometimes, opponents are just chessboard cannon fodder.

Notable Victory Highlight

One recent masterpiece saw dontchess223 skillfully checkmating ja32_32 in a Kings Pawn Opening battle. The final flourish? Re8# on move 41, a fitting tribute to their calmer endgame focus with 57% endgame frequency.
– a game to inspire budding tacticians.

In essence, dontchess223 may not be the grandmaster lighting up the headlines, but they're a relentless Rapid contender blending unorthodox openings and steady endgame prowess. So, if you spot this username across the board, better bring your A-game—and perhaps a sense of humor.
