Style & Stats
Anna’s games tend to be epic — with an average of over 54 moves per win — proving she loves a good fight from opening to endgame. She’s a balanced battler, winning 57.5% of her games with White and still holding a respectable 47.4% with Black.
Her “early resignation rate” hovers around 27%, which means if she’s not confident, she quite frankly knows when to save her energy for the next round. But beware: when she’s down a piece, she still wins over half the time — resilience is her middle name.
Opening Maestro
While many openers have passed through Anna’s repertoire, a mysterious “Top Secret” opening dominates her play, boasting a solid 53% to 54% win rate in both Blitz and Bullet formats. She’s also dabbled successfully in the tricky Reti Opening, with a perfect game recorded.
