Emil Krogsgaard

Emil Krogsgaard (aka Emildinho27)

Meet Emil Krogsgaard, a spirited chess player whose rapid rating is climbing faster than a queen on an open file! As of May 2025, Emil peaked at a solid Rapid rating of 468 and boasts a Blitz rating high score of 630—with only one blitz game played, so take that as a warning or an invitation to challenge!

Perhaps not yet a grandmaster, Emil plays with a style full of surprises and resilience. Known for an "early resignation rate" of just 2.29%, he's more inclined to fight than to throw in the towel early. His average game length hints at both patience and persistence: wins usually take around 54 moves, but losses drag on to nearly 69 moves—guess Emil likes a good chess saga before the final credits roll!

Opening Repertoire

Emil feels at home defending with the Caro-Kann Defense, winning a respectable 57% of 70 rapid games with it. His personal favorite surprise is the Alekhine's Defense, where he proudly wins two-thirds of his rapid encounters. Meanwhile, openings like the Philidor Defense showcase his tactical edge, boasting a 75% win rate. On the attack, Emil often prefers calm development, but don’t let that fool you — with a comeback rate of over 80%, he can turn the tides faster than you can say "checkmate!"

Notable Stats & Quirks

• Longest winning streak: 6 games (because streaks are made to be broken, right?)
• Current winning streak: 1 game (still festive!)
• Longest losing streak: 6 games (even the best stumble, but Emil bounces back!)
• Tilt factor: 6 (sometimes emotions run high, but so does his fighting spirit)
• Best time of day to play: 17:00, when Emil’s brain apparently enters chess wizard mode

Head-to-Head & Psychological Edge

Emil’s record against opponents is as colorful as his wardrobe: he holds a perfect 100% win rate against many frequent rivals such as "stinger15991" and "yoonk1228," but isn't afraid to learn the hard way from others who best him occasionally. Interestingly, rapid games on Saturday show his strongest performance with a win rate over 57%, while chess played at odd hours like 17:00 seem to unlock his full potential.

Recent Battles

In a thrilling recent rapid game, Emil outmaneuvered Stinger15991 with precision in the Italian Game, wrapping up victory by resignation after a commanding 22 move battle. Although not invincible, his losses—such as a tough match against RicFre007—only add fuel to his fiery passion for the game.

Playing Style

Emil is not your typical risk-averse player; he loves complex endgames (over 62% endgame frequency) where his tactical awareness really shines. His ability to pull off comebacks—winning over 80% of games where he's behind—is proof that "Emildinho27" is not just a name, but a force to be reckoned with on the chessboard.

Whether it’s through carefully calculated Caro-Kann counters or devil-may-care Alekhine antics, Emil Krogsgaard plays chess like it’s an adventure filled with human drama, a dash of mathematical precision, and just enough unpredictability to keep spectators on the edge of their seats.
