Meet ethangaff: The Chess Adventurer

If chess had a “rollercoaster enthusiast” award, ethangaff would be a top contender. With a Rapid rating that started at 900 and daringly dipped to 388 over 35 games in 2023, this player knows how to keep the suspense alive!

But don't be fooled by the numbers alone; ethangaff's Blitz games are the stuff of legend—127 battles fought with a peak rating of 1600 and a fearless spirit. Win? Loss? Draw? They’ve had their share of each (25 wins, 79 losses, and 23 draws), which just means they’re consistently in the thick of the action. Bullet chess? A quick four-game cameo with a 25% win rate shows ethangaff loves to dabble in speed too.

Fighting with the mysterious Top Secret opening in every time format, ethangaff keeps opponents guessing. The current streak? A humble zero, but let's not forget a three-game winning streak that hints at hidden potential.

Ethangaff isn’t just playing the board; they're also strategically picking opponents. Most battles have come against pogchamp162 (57 intense clashes) and manny1234567891011 (30 showdowns), with win rates that range from "could do better" to "future rematches pending."

Playing style notes: ethangaff is a quick thinker with a penchant for early resignations (22%)—because why drag a game out when you already know who’s destined for victory? On the bright side, their win rate after losing a piece is a perfect 100%, proving resilience is alive and well here.

Psychologically, ethangaff has a mild tilt factor of 9 (which means they get just a bit emotional after a tough loss) but makes up for it with steady improvements across rated and casual games.

When it comes to timing, late afternoon is prime time, boasting a 26.67% win rate at 4 PM, and evenings are golden with a smashing 66.67% win rate at 6 PM—clearly ethangaff thrives when the sun is setting.

In short, ethangaff embodies the courage of a chess warrior who isn’t afraid to lose spectacularly and laugh it off faster than you can say "checkmate." Keep an eye on this one—every game is an adventure!
