Player Profile: edchcom
Rating Highlights:
Edchcom is a formidable force on chess.com with peak ratings soaring to 2522 in Blitz (April 2025) and 2339 in Bullet (April 2025). Not too shabby for a battler who thrives under fast-paced pressure and keeps the tension sizzling on the board.
Playing Style & Strategy:
Known for a patient and enduring endgame, edchcom enjoys marathon battles, averaging about 79 moves per win, proving that quitting early is for the faint of heart — which might explain the low early resignation rate of just 0.57%. Whether wielding the white or black pieces, edchcom plays with nearly balanced win rates (White 45.36%, Black 48.35%), showing a flexible grip on the game’s multiple hues.
The specialty openings include the intriguingly named "Top Secret" (an opening so mysterious even chess engines scratch their heads) with a near 50% win rate in Bullet, and a stellar 100% win rate in Bullet with the Reti Opening Kings Indian Attack Symmetrical Defense — a niche favorite. Plus, a solid mixed bag of defenses from Modern to Sicilian, all throwing opponents into the deep end.
Recent Form & Highlights:
2025 has seen edchcom mix victories and challenges, boasting strong comeback prowess with a striking 89.34% comeback rate after losing material — basically, if material is lost, don’t count this player out! The recent games show an uncanny ability to deliver decisive checkmates and strategic resignations, wrapping matches with finesse.
Notable recent wins include elegant finishes such as a checkmate victory using the Torre Attack Fianchetto Defense, while losses occasionally come from strong adversaries wielding aggressive lines.
Psychological Edge & Timing:
Edchcom’s best time to strike? Afternoon hours around 3 PM, when the win rate peaks at a toothy 62%. Players beware during this hour: coffee-fueled brilliance and nimble fingers combine for a stealthy blitzkrieg. Wednesdays are also prime, where winning climbs just over 56%, as if the midweek blues transform into ruthless calculation.
Opponent Mix and Rivalries:
From the frequent frays against opponents like saeedsajad and tmod01 to those opponents who unfortunately suffer a 0% win rate against edchcom (looking at you, turku2006 and batmanunknow), edchcom balances fierce rivalry with impeccable record-keeping. Some opponents (like antonhy84) get a respectable 56.25% sweet taste of victory, but overall this player’s W/L/D stats reveal a resilient and adaptable competitor.
In summary: Edchcom is that rare blend of tenacity, tactical wizardry, and spirited endurance — a player who may seem calm on the surface but is orchestrating checkmates and comeback stories behind the scenes. Whether it's a lightning-fast Bullet game or a thoughtful Blitz duel, opponents know to expect surprises, silky traps, and a dash of humor wrapped in calculated moves. If chess were a thriller movie, edchcom would be the plot twist no one saw coming.
