Whether you're a fan of the King's Pawn Opening or a connoisseur of the French Defense, Erfaahm's strategic forays will keep you entertained—and occasionally baffled.

Rating & Stats

• Peak Rapid Rating: 374 (July 2023)
• Peak Bullet Rating: 393 (April 2025)
• Blitz: Still warming up with a not-so-impressive 100 rating—but hey, nobody's perfect!
• Overall Rapid Record: 225 wins, 215 losses, and 24 draws. Clearly, Erfaahm never gives up, oscillating wildly between wins and learnings.

Playing Style & Quirks

Known for an average of 55 moves per win, Erfaahm clearly prefers the scenic route to victory. The player isn’t afraid to resign early sometimes (about 13% of games), showing a healthy combo of humility and strategic avoidance of misery.

The endgame frequency is an impressive 46%, proving that when the going gets tough, Erfaahm doesn’t just fold – they fight it out deep into the battlefield. That comeback rate? A gutsy 67%! If losing a piece rattles you, don’t face Erfaahm—they like snatching victories from the jaws of setbacks.

Favorite Openings

Erfaahm loves kicking off games with:

• King's Pawn Opening (44 games, 52% win rate)
• King's Knight Variation (a sprightly 65% win rate!)
• Bishop's Opening, where fortunes swing but fun always ensues.

On the flip side, the Bishop's Opening Boi Variation seems to be their nemesis, with a rough 21% win rate. Everyone has their Achilles' heel, right?

The Legend in the Making
