Profile Summary: Raffy Regudo (EARL14TH)
Meet Raffy Regudo, the chess warrior known online as EARL14TH. In the wild kingdom of 64 squares, Raffy dances between rapid-fire blitz storms and the intense focus of rapid games with an amusing blend of grit and occasional whimsy. His official rating peaks at 712 in blitz and a respectable 567 in rapid, proving that he’s no stranger to outsmarting his opponents – or at least attempting to!
Raffy’s style is a charming cocktail of patience and bold tactical flashes. With an average win lasting about 45 moves, he’s willing to grind out victories that sometimes feel like marathons, not sprints. When things get rough, he holds an impressive 79% comeback rate, showing resilience that many chess players dream of. And despite a low “tilt” factor of 5%, he knows how to keep calm and carry on – even if some losses sting a little.
His opening repertoire is as colorful as his personality: he crushes it with the King’s Pawn Opening (winning a solid 75% of rapid games with it), but don’t be surprised if he tosses in an Englund Gambit or the quirky Van t Kruijs Opening to confuse you. In blitz, he’s ruthless with the Englund Gambit and the Bishop’s Opening, boasting a perfect 100% win rate in those rapid-fire skirmishes.
Notable for a mix of comebacks and checkmates, Raffy finished his last victories with style, delivering checkmate in multiple games showcasing both tactical sharpness and patience. Whether it’s dismantling opponents at 9 AM (his prime playing hour!) or defending stubbornly in endgames, Raffy brings passion and a dash of unpredictability to every match.
Beware if you face EARL14TH on a Monday at 14:00 – he boasts a remarkable 71% win rate during this prime time, which might just be a secret weapon or sheer coincidence. In any case, battle-tested and spirited, Raffy Regudo is definitely a player to watch (or prepare for, if you’re on the other side!).
