Dreadscare: The Relentless Chess Warrior

Meet Dreadscare, a player whose name strikes just the right amount of dread into the hearts of opponents — or at least gives them a mild headache. Rising steadily since 2017 from humble beginnings around the 900 rating mark, Dreadscare has fought tooth and nail across thousands of games, steadily marching upwards through the ranks like a chess-playing tank (with a slight tendency to tilt, but hey, who doesn’t?).

From blitz bouts to bullet battles, Dreadscare has logged an impressive volume of games — over 6,000 wins in bullet alone! Their highest bullet rating recently soared past the magical 2300 barrier, showcasing lightning-fast instincts and deadly precision. Blitz skills aren’t far behind, peaking close to 2250, while rapid and daily games prove this player can also hang in there for the longer spells.

“Make no early resignations here,” Dreadscare seems to say, with an early resignation rate barely over 1% — this warrior commits and fights hard. With an overall comeback rate soaring over 84%, this player thrives on fighting back even after setbacks; if your opening or middle-game scraps are messy, beware the lurking phoenix ready to rise from the ashes.

Favorite Openings & Playing Style

A master of the Sicilian Defense, Dreadscare wields variations like the Alapin Sicilian and the Four Knights with near robotic consistency. There's also a mysterious "Top Secret" opening, where the win rate nearly hits 68% in blitz — classified tactics, no doubt. On the bullet battlefield, the Old Benoni Defense and the Van't Kruijs Opening make regular appearances, along with trusty Sicilian variations. It's clear that Dreadscare likes to keep opponents guessing, while expertly building pressure and capitalizing on small mistakes.

Behind the scenes, this player tends to grind in endgames, with an impressive 76% endgame frequency and an average of 74 moves per win, proving patience is a chess virtue. White slightly edges out Black in win rate, but either color brings fierce competition.

Psychological Profile

With a tilt factor of 22, Dreadscare’s emotional swings are about average — enough to keep things interesting but never enough to let the crown slip. They play best in the wee hours, with 4 a.m. marking their peak alertness for crushing opponents before the coffee even kicks in. Beware playing them mid-afternoon or early evening unless you’re prepared for a wild tactical ride.

Recent Glories & Blunders

Just recently, Dreadscare secured a dazzling checkmate victory against "Baron_Fou" showcasing deep strategic prowess and cool nerves under pressure. Despite occasional losses to cunning foes like "Frankbarreiro," Dreadscare's resilience and tactical nous keep the score sheet balanced and the fans entertained.

Whether blitzing in bullet time or methodically dismantling opponents in rapid games, Dreadscare stands out as a formidable adversary — one who plays to win but knows how to keep the game fun and unpredictable. So next time you face Dreadscare, bring your A-game... and maybe a towel for the sweat.
