ESP-918 is a relentless chess gladiator who has battled on the virtual battlefield since at least 2016, steadily climbing the ranks and slipping elegantly into 2025 with a blitz peak rating of an impressive 2453. Not just a one-trick pony, ESP-918 holds notable peak ratings across all time controls—blitz, bullet, and rapid—with a bullet max over 2486 and a rapid crown at 2289.

Known for embracing the Polish Opening with a flair for the aggressive (and perhaps slightly rebellious) Kucharkowski Meybohm Gambit, ESP-918 has ventured through thousands of games, boasting a near 47% win rate in blitz and bullet variations of this opening. They dance through the Scandinavian Defense too, although with a bit less luck—because where would the fun be without a little challenge?

With an astonishing comeback rate of over 88%, ESP-918 refuses to give in even when the odds look grim (or the queen is missing). It's like they avoided the 'early surrender' club, with less than 1% of their games ending in a one-sided loss. And while their longest losing streak reached a dreaded 31 games—yikes!—their spirit to bounce back is stronger than ever, currently enjoying a small 2-game winning streak. Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, but with chess pieces.
