Meet drewfyou: Chess's Unpredictable Maestro
In the realm of pawns, knights, and elusive bishops, drewfyou dances on the 64 squares with a flair that could be described as equal parts crafty grandmaster and mischievous prankster. Starting modestly with a bullet rating hovering around the 200s back in 2023, drewfyou has steadily climbed the ladder, peaking impressively at 733 in bullet chess and an astonishing 991 in rapid games as of mid-2025. Clearly, rapid is where the magic happens, with a win rate that suggests they’ve turned ticking clocks into ticking victories.
With an uncanny 66.34% comeback rate, drewfyou is the player everyone fears: the one who’s down a piece but not out of the fight — just when you think the game’s slipping away, look out for their sneaky resurgence! This stubborn spirit pairs nicely with an admirable average moves per win at around 45, proving patience is a virtue, even in blitz-hungry online arenas.
It’s not all smooth sailing; a tilt factor of 19 hints that even this chess warrior isn’t immune to the occasional “why did I just blunder that?” moment — but hey, who isn’t? Our hero’s psychological battle peaks around 3 PM, possibly fueled by the perfect afternoon snack and a strong coffee.

- Pirc Defense Family: Played with mixed results but always dangerous; drewfyou keeps adversaries guessing with flexibility and surprises.

Style & Personality

Whether you’re looking for a fierce rival or a charming chess story, drewfyou is a name destined to make waves, one bold check and quirky gambit at a time.
