Profile of EvanCapel

EvanCapel is a formidable force on the chessboard, known for an aggressive and tactical playing style that keeps opponents thoroughly entertained – or utterly frustrated. Boasting peak blitz and bullet ratings soaring above 2550 and 2580 respectively, Evan is no stranger to intense, lightning-fast battles where one wrong move means instant extinction.

Chess Journey and Style

Starting with a modest blitz rating of just 1323 in late 2012, Evan quickly rocketed up the ranks, reaching a peak blitz rating of 2557 in July 2024. That’s like going from “pawn” to “queen” in less than a decade. In bullet chess, where reflexes matter more than sleep, Evan hit an impressive 2589 peak back in 2016, showing a remarkable blend of speed and precision.

When it comes to his tactics, Evan exhibits a comeback rate of nearly 58%, meaning even if he loses a piece or stumbles into a tricky position, you can bet he's plotting a counterattack that'll make you think twice before celebrating. His average game lengths—about 52 moves per win and 48 per loss—suggest that he’s both patient and determined, making each piece dance a little longer.

White or black, Evan keeps up a fierce competition, winning more than half his games regardless of color, and in blitz especially, he’s famous for the occasional sneaky early resignation – but only about 36% of the time. The rest he fights to the bitter end with a mix of checkmates and time scrambles that often leave spectators gasping.

Notable Achievements & Statistics

  • Total Blitz Games Played: Over 9,000 with a win ratio just over 51%
  • Bullet Games: More than 3,000 with an impressive near 58% win rate
  • Longest Winning Streak: 28 games – that’s nearly a whole month of undefeated brilliance!
  • Favorite Opening: The mysterious and ever-effective "Top Secret" opening, pulling an astonishing 57% win rate in blitz
  • Psychological Trend: Beware playing Evan around 7 PM (his personal prime time), especially on Sunday and Saturday when win rates peak close to 67%!

Fun Facts

Despite being an absolute blitz beast, Evan is not immune to a little tilt (tilt factor 17), but his determination to fight back shines through his strong win rate even after losing a piece. Opponents have noted that Evan’s strategic resilience can feel like trying to checkmate a chess ninja.

Among rivals, Evan seems to have some friendly rivalries with usernames like imbaspirit and nyanbun, boasting win rates of 57.6% and a surprising 91.7% respectively. If you’re planning to face him, best brush up on your defenses!

Most Recent Triumph

In May 2025, Evan orchestrated a swift checkmate victory using the Queen's Pawn Opening, Torre Attack. It only took 13 moves for Evan to deliver the stunning Qxh7#. Looks like Evan’s motto is: "Why drag it out when checkmate is an option?"

Summary

In short, EvanCapel is a dynamic and fiercely competitive player with a penchant for tactical brilliance and rapid-fire moves. Whether you meet him in a classic blitz duel or a heart-pounding bullet battle, be prepared for a rollercoaster of sharp sacrifices, swift checkmates, and a player who never gives up until that final clock beep.
