Profile Summary: ehughes2413
Meet ehughes2413, a spirited battler on the 64 squares whose chess journey reads like an epic saga mixed with a splash of humor and heart. Rising from humble beginnings with Blitz ratings bouncing between mere mortal scores to a peak of 889 in 2025, ehughes2413's path is one of resilience, determination, and a touch of eccentric brilliance.
Blitz is their playground—where they've logged nearly a thousand games showing off a fierce will to win and an ironic fondness for stubbornly sticking it out. With a solid 52.3% win rate using their favorite "Top Secret" opening, one wonders what secrets lie in those moves. A decent chunk of games played here showcase their tactical prowess, often crafting comebacks with a 68.18% success rate—a true phoenix rising from tactical ashes.
Their rapid games tell a tale of a grander canvas, achieving a peak rating of 1042—a number that sparks envy among many weekend warriors. The rapid format suits ehughes2413’s style, mixing strategic depth with timing precision. An average game length of around 59 moves when winning suggests a love for the grind, playing through the middle and endgame with patience that few possess.
Bullet chess? Not exactly their domain of speed demons; yet, they've grabbed moments of glory with a max bullet rating of 528, showing flashes of lightning-fast calculation. But ehughes2413 admits: sometimes it's okay to let the seconds tick away, especially when managing that occasional tilt factor—measured modestly at 8. Hey, nobody’s perfect!
Speaking of psychology, they shine brightest around 1 PM, when their win rate peaks delightfully at 71.43% during the 13th hour. Clearly, that’s prime time for ehughes2413 to dominate opponents who dare sit across the board.
This player’s preferred opening? The legendary Caro-Kann Defense—so beloved it’s practically their signature. Recent games featured classic Caro-Kann battles with maneuvers like 1...c6 and tactical skirmishes that would make Botvinnik proud.
When not plotting checkmates or dodging them, ehughes2413 has amassed over 460 Blitz wins and nearly 180 victories in Rapid — a testament to their competitive fire and love of the game. They also boast a respectable win percentage with White (54.33%) and Black (49.61%), proving they're tough no matter which set of pieces they command.
If you look for a player who blends resilience, strategic patience, and a pinch of unpredictability, ehughes2413 fits the bill. They may not freeze the clock with bullet moves every time, but they're always ready to outthink, outlast, and sometimes out-stare their opponents into submission. Check out their games for a dose of determination—and maybe a chuckle when they resign early only 2.01% of the time. That's dignity, with a wink.
Whether they're on a winning streak (longest streak: 8 games!) or battling through losses, ehughes2413 brings their unique flavor to every match. If chess were a sitcom, ehughes2413 would be the quirky lead who somehow pulls off wins against all odds—and maybe loses a few on time because hey, who’s counting seconds when you’re making brilliant moves?
